[PVE-User] How to be sure if I can safely delete pve/data thin pool LV

[Christoph Weber]

Hi everybody,

I'm need to make the pve/root LV larger on one node, because Ceph complains during backups that there is low disk space on the disk.

I'm pretty sure that I don't use the lvthin pool or that the pve/data LV is in use, but would like a second opinion, before I destroy it

Did I miss something, or is it really safe to destroy pve/data safely? 

Thanks for your help :-)
