Subject: [PATCH manager v2] postinst: add nbd devices to global lvm filter.
Date: Wed, 8 Jul 2026 08:59:35 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260708065936.30842-1-d.herzig@proxmox.com> (raw)
This patch adds kernel NBD devices to the global filter list of LVM
for new installations.
This is to avoid clashes with existing VGs/LVs on the host system, if
external disks mapped via the nbd kernel driver contain the same
naming scheme (e.g. nested Proxmox VE systems with LVM/ext4
installation on an LVM/ext4 host).
As kernel NBD devices are used by some external backup providers for
certain operations, this may prevent unexpected situations on systems
that make use of these tools.
