<li> To accommodate <strong>the Greyhole Landing Zone volume</strong> on this VM, add a single drive image to the VM to act as the LZ storage mount, typically known to Amahi users as '/var/hda/files'.<br />
- Under the 'hardware' tab, click "add" > "hard disk" > 'VIRTIO' > device '1' > storage 'local'<br />
- Decide how big this drive is to be. It is limited only by how much 'local' storage is available in that Proxmox partition. A good suggestion is 500MB to 1TB because the LZ needs to be big enough to handle your data moving into the storage pool. Once again the remaining options are up to you, but leave cache at 'default'. I would suggest to NOT include this LZ drive image in backups and snapshots (There's no need to back this up unless you will have shares NOT marked for pooling. ) Finally, click "Add" and this drive is added to the VM</li><br />
<li>
At this point, with the HDA VM highlighted, click the "Start" button at the top right of the window and it will boot up. Right away, click the "console" button just to the right of the migrate button. <br />
*It is suggested that if your HDA is definitely going to be your DNS and DHCP server, that it boots as '0' (first).<br />
</li>
<li>Now that your Amahi VM is installed and created, please check that its main functionality is good. Your OS drive and the second drive acting as LZ, mounted to '/var/hda/files' should be accessible. If all is well, shut down the VM. <br /li>At this point in time, your physical drives that you wish to use with Greyhole should be inside the Proxmox node and connected. If they are not, please shut down the system, connect the drives, boot it up and then ensure your Amahi VM is shutdown once more. <libr />Now use any method you wish to get terminal access to your Proxmox node: either with the 'Console' button in the web GUI, or your favourite SSH client to SSH the Proxmox node.</li><li>(drive add)
</li>
</ol>
