[PVE-User] Problems adding iSCSI LVM target

[Fermín Manzanedo Guzmán]

Hi.

Since a few months using proxmox with local disks we're trying to
implement it over an iSCSI target but we have problems to make the LVM
volume over the target.

These are the steps we follow:

- From the web interface: Storage -> Storage List -> Add iSCSI target
- Fill all the data needed, and proxmox see the target:

nas1 	ISCSI 	Yes 	Yes 	Yes 	n/a 	n/a 	n/a


- From the Storage List menu, "Add LVM group" and fill the Storage Name
(tried to fill it with the same name than the target or with other),
select the base storage, which then shows the base volume filled up with
the existing iSCSI LUN, filled de volume group name (=pve), enable,
shared and content "Virtual Disks".

But when press de "save" link, proxmox shows a pop-up with this info:

Error: command '/sbin/pvs --separator : --noheadings --units k
--unbuffered --nosuffix --options pv_name,pv_size,vg_name,pv_uuid
/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-360a980004335444e4e6f544657306a39' failed with exit
code 5

This is the syslog output:

Nov 24 11:33:07 cloud07 kernel: sd 1:0:0:0: [sda] 41943040 512-byte
hardware sectors (21475 MB)

Thanks. Regards
