Thanks for figuring that out, I have a bunch of VMs to move from Xen to Proxmox and this saved a massive amount of time

I added those rules (for CPU and memory) but it still failed to boot. It wasn't an issue of missing memory I believe, as it failed to find assemble the LVM volumes.

So I have upgraded that VM to Oracle Linux 9 and I can now enable the memory hotplug option without crashing the VM. It seems there is an incompatibility between Oracle Linux 7 and that option in some cases. Thank you so much @bbgeek17 I couldn't possibly have done it without your oh so helpful...

Thanks, but it still seems to be a PVE issue: I've done a lot of testing and it seems that I was looking in the wrong direction: the culprit is memory hotplug. If I disable it, the VM boots fine. The CPU type does not seem to make a difference. The error I get on boot is this:

The VM I'm currently working on is a Oracle Linux 7 machine. I'm not sure what you mean by format? I export the VM from Xenserver as an XVA file, use https://github.com/guestisp/xen-to-pve/tree/master to convert it to a raw file and then import this raw file with "qm importdisk"

So if I boot into a live CD in proxmox, all the LVMs are available, I can chroot into the OS. If I boot the imported disk, it can't find the LVM and boots into rescue mode

That's not exactly what happens: all the VMs I import with a single disk boot fine and work fine. If I import a VM with multiple disks, they either boot but the additional disks are not accessible, or they don't boot at all. I believe I've narrowed it down to LVM issues caused by devices...

Hi, I've setup a Proxmox cluster on which we are planning to migrate all the VMs from our out of support Xen Servers. I've been using this script to export and extract the disks directly on proxmox, and for the most part, it works fine. My issue is that I can only import a single disk from a...
