Hello,

I have a Proxmox 7.2-7 cluster consisting of 2 nodes, pve1 and pve2. pve1 has a local storage called "Data". "Data" is a ZFS pool consisting of 3 SSD in RAIDZ. Data holds all of pve1's VMs. pve2 has a local storage called "Data2". "Data2" consists of 4 HDs in RAIDZ.

If I try to offline migrate a VM from pve1 to pve2, I get the error message that "Storage (Data) not available on selected target. Start VM to use live migration or select different target node." So I removed Data2 from pve2 and tried to create a ZFS volume on pve2 with the same name ("Data"), I get the error message "storage ID 'Data' already defined (500)".

What am I doing wrong? How can I offline migrate a VM from pve1 to pve2?

Thanks
