Hi all,

for some reason my Qubes OS does create new qubes with private storage on pool "varlibqubes" instead of lvm. It was working before but i dont know the reason why the behaviour changed.

Thanks for any help.

Maybe you accidentally changed the default_pool setting?

Check `qubes-prefs`.

I've checked qvm-prefs and wasnt aware of qubes-prefs. Setting the default_pool parameter to lvm fixed it.

I dont remember that i changed it but i had broken SSD and as a result a broken volume group. Maybe thats the cause.

Thanks a lot.
