[PVE-User] LVM usage

[Daniel]

Yes, I run it via Cron on the Host. I found a Script in the Proxmox Forum.
That’s working for me fine.

Thx

    No, that's not bug, that's feature. If fstrim frees space, then you have 
    discard enabled on host (in VM config).
    
    You need to enable discard for guest filesystems on mount (usually in 
    /etc/fstab), or just put fstrim to crontab.
