Having LVM on the disk causes system to automatically active such volumes. I installed used drive with Ubuntu on it to my Proxmox server. Using Proxmox’s UI you will not be able to wipe this drive, because volume group has been already auto-activated. You need to log into shell and then:
vgs # pick VG on your interest
vgchange -a n vgname # pass your VG to deactivate itAfter this, you are ready to wipe drive from the UI.
During sync between two Proxmox Backup Server instances I got “decryption failed or bad record mac” error message. So I decided to go for upgrading source PBS to match its version with target PBS. PBS upgrade To upgrade PBS: Get rid of bookworm sources.
Imaging you are running TrueNAS virtualized and would like to resize drive increasing its capacity. Then reboot and new size should be visible in ZFS pool. It has ability to auto expand by default.
Last time (somewhere around 2023) there was an option on Scaleway to install Proxmox 7 directly from appliance. There was also possiblity to use Debian 11 and install Proxmox atop of it.
