Thank you Gianni, I know this function but it does not work with 
drbdstorage.

Anyway, it adds the "node n1,n2" in the /etc/pve/storage.cfg :-)

you are opening my eyes :-D

the non-working storage works! tried to move disk/live migrate on it

  Trying to create diskful resource (vm-100-disk-1) on (pve6-2).
   Diskfull assignment failed, let's autoplace it.....

TASK OK!!!


so why the state of the storage is "unknown"?

I tried to assign a diskless sp too:

linstor storage-pool create diskless pve6-2 n3sp

with SUCCESS


but still "unknown".. it appears as a non-working function but it works 
very well :-)


so my question are:

- is it possible to show a normal status for that storage?

- I still would like to hide a storge for some nodes to prevent their use


Thank you very much to all

Denis
