Hi,

I used VMWare Converter to create a vmdk from a physical machine and then converted it to qcow2. Then I moved it to Proxmox. Created a new VM with a 32GB raw disk. How do I swap the raw disk with the newly created qcow2 disk? Please direct me. Thanks

ok, thanks. From the link you provided I found this command:

Code:
qm importdisk $vmid $FULL_PATH/lvm-partitions.img $storage --format raw

Where $vmid would just be my actual newly created VM ID, but what is $storage? lvm-thin?

The storageID (so the name) of your target storage.
