[pbs-devel] [pve-devel][storage][ui] Debugging UI for storage

[Andrei Perapiolkin]

Thanks for recommendations Fabian!


After checking logs and small tweaking I found that my issue can be 
solved by:

Adding `timeout` property to the `run_command` from PVE::Tools call.


I hope this info will help other plugin developers.


Thanks for your time and attention,

Andrei Perepiolkin
