1. convert the original "RAW" format of the virtual machine into "Qcow2" and save it in the root directory

2. separate the "RAW" disk, delete the "RAW" disk, and import the "Qcow2" format disk in the root directory

3: but "RAW" is still displayed in the Web Gui interface?

Is it necessary to restart PVE?2021-06-27_152046.jpg2021-06-27_151823.jpg
 
Have you tried
Code:
qm importdisk 100 VM100.qcow2 local-lvm --format qcow2
already?

Both LVM and LVM-Thin only support .raw images in Proxmox VE. qm importdisk silently ignores invalid storage-format combinations.
