    Migration from OpenNebula to Proxmox 5.x

    Hello, I need to migrate from OpenNebula to Proxmox VE. Given that they both use KVM in the back, it should be pretty easy.

    After a few google searches, I found that live migration while on local storage is possible using the CLI. I was unable to do it using the GUI though. Is there some reason the GUI doesn't support shared nothing live migrations? Or have I missed a checkbox someplace?
