Can't know what VMs are present on an offline server.

I moved from Proxmox 6 to Proxmox 7 this night (Debian 10 -> Debian 11).

Worked on 8 servers and failed on one (GRUB issue).

While the failing server was offline, I did not find a way to get VMs stopped on this server. The Proxmox UI just shows ids without VM names.

This is really frustrating when you want to know what critical servers are down.
 
hi,

you can check in /etc/pve/qemu-server and /etc/pve/lxc/ directories where you'll find the configuration file for all your guests.

try following command: grep -R 'name:' /etc/pve/
