Create a new storage pool with bigger disk(s) and migrate your stuff
Much less of a headache.
You could also add a directory to your local-lvm storage and set that to be your iso store in datacenter-> storage
It’s really that much of a hassle to fiddle with the volume sizes?
Its definitely more of a hassle than adding another storage pool or creating a directory in local-lvm.
You suggested just adding the ISOs to local-lvm. Do you think it would be feasible to simply delete the local storage completely and then extend the local-lvm after, storing the ISOs there? I know extending volumes is much simpler than shrinking. And I imagine deleting completely is also easier than shrinking?

From the comment:
This is how I do it:
boot into gparted (make bootable usb https://gparted.org/liveusb.php)
open terminal
run lvdisplay to check the proxmox root and data lv name and path
sudo lvdisplayresize the root lv (choose size, no curly brackets)
sudo lvreduce --resizefs -L {size}G /dev/pve/rootresize the data lv to use all available space
sudo lvresize -l +100%FREE /dev/pve/data
reboot into proxmox
pray
I do not suggest doing this. Just add another disk.
