pct unmount 101

Copy a local file to the container.

pct push <vmid> <file> <destination> [OPTIONS]

Copy a file from the container to the local system.

pct pull <vmid> <path> <destination> [OPTIONS]

Other Mount Info

mkdir /mnt/bak
mount /dev/sddX /mnt/bak

(this is only persistent until the next reboot)

You should then be able to browse the files of that storage in /mnt/bak

Configure storage in PVE GUI or use the CLI:

pvesm add dir bak --path /mnt/bak --content backup
