2. Add new hard disk

        a. If SATA or IDE, add them in webgui
        b. If nvme, see Proxmox ve(proxmox)にディスクを追加する(LVM)
      vgcreate win-wb /dev/nvme0n1p1
        add lvm win-wb in datacenter/storage, attached to node pve
        add harddisk to vm
      lvextend -l +100%FREE /dev/win-wb/vm-100-disk-0
Note: win-wb is VG(Volumn Group) and LVM(Logical Volumn Manager), vm-100-disk-0 is LV(Logical Volumn), PV is Physical Volumn


Troubleshoot


1. Delete directory

        see How i can remove directory-entry from gui?
      systemctl disable mnt-pve-wb.mnt
      rm /etc/systemd/system/mnt-pve-wb.mount
Note: Tab key may not be functional

2. Plug/unplug video card, causing netword adaptor NIC changed

        see No internet in host, internet in VMs. , use
      ip addr
        check all network adaptors instead of ifconfig
