I am trying to convert a Win2016 server from XEN to Proxmox with the following steps:
  • Export the VM to a VHD file
  • Convert the disk to qcow2 format using

  • Code:
    qemu-img convert -f vpc -O qcow2 [location XEN-file].vhd [new file].qcow2
  • Created the VM in Proxmox without a disk
  • Then imported the file in PM using:
    Code:
     qm importdisk 125 [filelocation] Data
  • Attached the disk to the VM and changed the boot order.
Now it looks like this:

Now my issue:
When booting, I get this:

Any help please?
