    Migrate VM from Xen to Proxmox

    yes, that's expected, as I wrote the script for my environment. Would be nice to automate the change, how can I know the storage path in use ? Should I read the value somewhere ?

    Migrate VM from Xen to Proxmox

    Try the v2 branch: https://github.com/guestisp/xen-to-pve Tested for about 4 VM transfers on my local server, all perfect. But I did some changes when publishing on github (just to remove hardcoded user/pass and so on) so please try it on a sandbox. Keep in mind that this will WRITE directly...

    Migrate VM from Xen to Proxmox

    I did a (much) better version if you would like to try. It doesn't have to extract nothing, it dumps the full VM to the ZFS pool on PVE.

    Coalesce disks

    But one of the biggest issue is how to "merge" multiple disks in a bigger one. Some of my old VMs are made of 7-8 "small" 20-25GB disks, I would like to move on PVE with just one bigger disks, if possible

    Ciao, this is the situation: multiple VMs migrated from XenServer to PVE, each one with their original disks (i've done an automated migration script that will move virtual disks from XS to PVE). Almost all of these server has multiple disks connected with A LOT of wasted space. In example...

    Very old server migration: virtio_blk needed?

    In every (linux) server I migrate from XenServer to PVE, i'll add virtio_blk and virtio_pci to initramfs and I'm using Virtio SCSI controller. For a very, very, very, very, very, very old server, (top performance is not a requirement) i have to migrate in the easiest way, so, if possible, to...

    [SOLVED] grub: invalid magic number

    I could try, but grub is already loaded and working. What's not working is the kernel. Grub is unable to load the kernel, but is able too see it ("ls" from grub rescue console, show all files)
