Converting zvols to raw or qcow2

[bitblue.lab]

Is it possible somehow with qemu to convert zvols to raw or qcow2 for example if you want to move those disks to other servers etc.

Can you show me some command line how to do it there ?

I am not sure that is actually possible ( short - non comprehensive - google search). But i am not the best person to ask for ZFS.

Do you just wanna migrate from Node 1 to node 2 and keep ZFS/zvols ?
Or do you completely wanna migrate away from ZFS ?

seems i was wrong, have a look here:

Thanks friend but what I am asking is to convert zvol to qcow2 through CLI, because I need to transfer some VM-s to other virtualization systems.

For a volume named storage/vm-100-disk0

qemu-img convert -f raw /dev/zvol/storage/vm-100-disk0 -O qcow2 vm-100-disk0.qcow2
