Unable to Deploy Proxmox Worker -

[warnox]

Hi,

I've got a new installation of PVE 8.3.2, and trying to use Veeam 12.3.0.310 to deploy a Proxmox worker. The ISO image (PveWorker_1.0.1.1031.img) gets copied across without issues, but the process then fails while running the copy command below, always at the same point (40.49%).

The NFS storage I selected is a 1.5 TB volume, while the local store is only 100 GB. I understand why it would potentially fail going to local storage, but there is adequate space on NFS.

Error Failed to deploy the worker VM: unable to create VM 100 - copy failed: command '/usr/bin/qemu-img convert -p -n -O qcow2 /var/lib/vz/template/iso/PveWorker_1.0.1.1031.img zeroinit:/mnt/pve/nfs_nzs-nas-2_nzs-nfs-1/images/100/vm-100-disk-1.qcow2' failed: exit code 1
Error Worker nzs-pve-2-veeam-worker test failed: unable to create VM 100 - copy failed: command '/usr/bin/qemu-img convert -p -n -O qcow2 /var/lib/vz/template/iso/PveWorker_1.0.1.1031.img zeroinit:/mnt/pve/nfs_nzs-nas-2_nzs-nfs-1/images/100/vm-100-disk-1.qcow2' failed: exit code 1

The full error from PVE is as below.

Has anyone else seen this error before? Anything else I can try?

Hello,

Check if /mnt/pve/nfs_nzs-nas-2/images/100/ is actually mounted.
If the mount is not successful, data at this path will occupy space on local storage.

If it is mounted and the error still persists, please open a support case and share the number with us.
