It might not be, but I am intimately familiar with it. It's proxmox itself that's the wildcard here. I will shrink the LVM and then DD it to the new disk.
Couldn't I just shrink a partition myself? I could clone the LXCs to the 4TB drive and just shrink the LVM partition significantly. DD the disks, recreate the LVM on the new SSD and move em back, right?
Using a larger disk isn't an option, unfortunately. I don't have that kind of money.
Hi! My Proxmox machine has 3 disks (see pic). I wish to migrate sdc to a 2TB SSD. I have LXCs on all drives and I would really like to avoid having to restart from backups. I don't have any special configuration on my proxmox, it's pretty clean and basic.
Is it safe to simply dd the old disk to the new one? I can't find an explicit answer to this question that doesn't also have a lot of other variables not relevant to me.
If not, what else can I do?
I frequently don't get off my bike and stand aside when a large SUV comes barrelling down the tiny road I live on. I can tell it pisses them off, but I can also tell that they're only one person so I don't see why it's my problem that they have a car that doesn't fit on the road. I have as much right to this road as they do.
outbound federation to lemmy.world hasn’t been more than 4 minutes behind in the last 24 hours,
How can you tell?
4 hours ago. I can see it, now. Can you check if you also see it now?
It seems to have federated now. It wasn't there 30 minutes ago, sorting by new.

There's only one store in my town that explicitly signs that I have to leave my backpack at the front desk but they haven't had the balls to tell me no, yet. I will just shop anywhere else the moment they as much as mention it to me.
The issue is that I can't really fit all of the data somewhere else. Can I shove it onto the 4TB drive and then mount it on a new proxmox install and recover from there?
