How to import openVZ Containers into Proxmox LXC?

[der_ch]

Hello!

I have an old openVZ only (no Proxmox) machine running openVZ (vzctl version 3.0.29.3) and want to migrate to my new proxmox 4 host system.

I just uploaded the backup of the container and renamed it to vzdump-openvz-ID-Date+Time.tar and tried to import it.

After some time it shows me the following error:

TASK ERROR: ERROR: archive contains no configuration file

Is there a import script or do I have to change something when running the dump on the openVZ host?

Regards

have you looked at this ?

Yes, thank you,

but I had no Proxmox 3.X system on the one hand - I just had a running openvz system with some kind of WebGui (openVZ Web Panel)
and this just creates some kind of backup files like above (where I get this Error message...)

The problem may be the absolute paths within the vzdump of my openvz server...

how to get the relative paths here? (or vice versa - I don't know...)
