How to do P2V

[bravo0916]

Hello Team,

I plan to do P2V that is from Linux physical machine to Proxmox VM machine. I am searching for the solution, but I have not hit good one.
Could you please let me know if you know how to do this for Proxmox. Or maybe you can share the link?

Thank you for your help!

Regards,

Clonezilla can always be useful.

Hello, thanks for your quick response. Yes, I used to use vmware vcenter converter before. However, I will need to setup ESXi environment and then deploy machines...

Hi ness1602,
Thank you for your feedback. Is this possible to get image only on physical Linux machine and deploy into Proxmox?
I am not sure how I can use Clonezilla. I need to copy the file into USB and stick it in the Linux machine and boot it?
And create image?

As ness1602 commented, I recommend Clonezilla . I also use Clonezilla when I do P2V.
