Hello everyone!

I have a VM(119) and would like to convert it to qcow2 but I get this error :

qemu-img: Could not open 'rpool/data/vm-119-disk-0': Could not open 'rpool/data/vm-119-disk-0': No such file or directory

zfs list out this though :

I have a VM(119) and would like to convert it to qcow2 but I get this error :

how do you try to convert it?
and where do you want to move the disk-image to?
(qcow2 only works on directory/nfs/cifs storages and the like)

maybe the reference documentation on storage types might be helpful:
https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/chapter-pvesm.html

I hope this helps!

how do you try to convert it?

I used "qemu-img" command.

$ qemu-img convert -O qcow2 -f raw rpool/data/vm-119-disk-0 HDD1TB/VM/VM19image.qcow2

and where do you want to move the disk-image to?
(qcow2 only works on directory/nfs/cifs storages and the like)

HDD1TB/VM is the destination directory.

maybe the reference documentation on storage types might be helpful:

I hope this helps!
