Hi, i m new to proxmox (i come from the esx_hell_vsphere :-}), for me what i m going to tell is a bug, but perhaps it is just a restriction.
In the ui proxmox v8.2.
Suppose you have a vm with 3 or 4 disks :
if you want to move all the vm disks you have to do it one by one.
You can't launch a move disk form the menu "disk action" of the vm then close the windows doing the move , select another disk of the vm and try to move it.
It complains about beeing not able to acquire the lock.

In fact it does a qm move and use the vm name for the lock instead of using the disk_name of the vm.

So if you try to move the first disk, the lock is "vm" and you have to wait to move others disks in that vm.

By the way a "bulk move " as you do a "bulk migration" will be nice (moving between zfs pools for example will be easier)

Hope this could helps some others
