Issue

Storage Manager doesn't recognise virtio /dev/vdx hard drives

Resolved

As per the title.

I'm using Proxmox with 3 instances of ClearOS.

ClearOS recognises the virtual drive if it is configured as SATA as these show as /dev/sdx but this prevents Proxmox from taking live snapshots for some reason :(

Is there a hack to make Storage Manager app recognise /dex/vdx please?

    Many thanks for replying Nick :)

    I ended up uninstalling the app and using the guide to manually create the steps and add the relevant lines in fstab and this seems to work OK, except of course it doesn't show up in the webconfig.

    Cheers!

    Have a look at the Storage Manager Technical Guide. It looks like you should be able to edit /etc/fstab to point to your /dev/vdx device. Make sure you unmount the original device which is mapped to the storage manager first.
