How to migrate a proxmox 1.9 vm to 2.0b3 ?

How can I migrate a vm from 1.9 to 2.0 ? I think livemigration is not working, is it possible to qmrestore a 1.9 backup to 2.0 ?
Hi,
yes - but you must edit the vm-config after that. The network-line must be changed - take a look on running configs on both nodes and you will see the differences.

BTW. qmrestore use simply tar - so you can do all "by hand".

no errormsg with: qm start 104

config (mac is changed):

Code:
cpu: kvm32
net0: virtio=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx,bridge=vmbr0
ide2: local:iso/smeserver-7.5.1-i386.iso,media=cdrom
name: sme7-242
bootdisk: scsi0
cores: 1
ostype: l26
memory: 512
sockets: 1
scsi0: local:104/vm-104-disk-1.qcow2
keyboard: de
onboot: 1
 
OK the vm (sme7) is booting with ide0.

The config is:

Code:
cpu: kvm32
net0: virtio=XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX,bridge=vmbr0
name: sme7-242
bootdisk: ide0
cores: 1
ostype: l26
memory: 512
sockets: 1
ide0: local:104/vm-104-disk-1.qcow2
keyboard: de
onboot: 1
boot: cdn

And I had to change to bootorder to ide0.

Thanks for your help, i will do some tests now ...
 
Hi All,

The same result with a qmrestored SME8.

I did a test with iperf to check the (virtual) network-traffic between SME8 and Ubuntu 10.04 on a Fujitsu TX100 S3:

Code:
------------------------------------------------------------

Looks good, I think thats ok :D
 
Hi,

W2k8R2 is also working, I qmrestored it without any config-modification (just keyboard-layout to german).

The config is:

Code:
name: win2k8r2
net0: virtio=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx,bridge=vmbr0
bootdisk: virtio0
virtio0: local:109/vm-109-disk-1.raw
ostype: w2k8
memory: 8000
sockets: 1
onboot: 0
cores: 1
keyboard: de
 
Hi udo,

Thanks, e1000 should work for win7ult and w2k8r2,
the next one is a qmrestored debian 6 (gemeinschaft 3.1 pbx).

Code:
cpu: qemu64
net0: rtl8139=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx,bridge=vmbr0
virtio1: local:240/vm-240-disk-1.qcow2
name: deb6-gemeinschaft-3-1-225
bootdisk: virtio1
cores: 1
ostype: l26
memory: 1000
sockets: 1
keyboard: de
vga: cirrus
boot: cdn

I will do some tests ...

Hi,
for linux-guest I preferr virtio-net (very stable - not comparable with the windows version).
