William Edwards replied to the thread Migrating linked clones - does that go well?.Got it. Just created a qcow2 image from scratch; can confirm that 'VM ID prefix' is always there, so not specific to my case. Thanks @bbgeek17! -

Like.
Migration across heterogeneous storage is handled by a client-side process. The client has no awareness of the internal layout or implementation details of the virtual disk - it simply reads logical data blocks. Whether those blocks originate... -
William Edwards replied to the thread Migrating linked clones - does that go well?.Hi @bbgeek17, I was moreso referring to the VM ID as prefix (`105/`). ZFS to local is just for testing purposes. Real migration will be Ceph to Ceph. Regarding the linked-clone-ness: I'm completely fine with VM disks being converted to full...

Some of those VMs are linked clones, the parent of which would still be on the old storage. Should this go well? I tried this in a lab environment, and it looks like the linked clone is converted to a...

William Edwards replied to the thread Cloud-init `instance_id` changes on migration to different hypervisor.Pretty sure I just found the deviation in `resolv.conf` that causes the hash to change. That was a very useful hint, thanks. What throws me off is that SSH host keys aren't re-generated every time this happens, while the `ssh` module runs with...

William Edwards replied to the thread Cloud-init `instance_id` changes on migration to different hypervisor.Hi @bbgeek17, Thanks for your reply. Your comment on `/etc/resolv.conf` is actually a very good one - I found that five nodes in the cluster have a deviating one. To see if that's an issue, I migrated the VM - that I could reproduce the issue...

William Edwards posted the thread Cloud-init `instance_id` changes on migration to different hypervisor in Proxmox VE: Installation and configuration.Hi, For some time now, we've been having an issue where Cloud-init re-runs on VMs that have already been operating for months or years. By 'run', I mean that first-boot-only stages run again, such as upgrading packages. This is obviously very...
