can't you just use the "move disk" in the proxmox ve gui?
 
Yep, that's the recommended way.

Add the ZFS under Datacenter->Storage then click on "move disk" in the VM's hardware tab.
 
proxmox_zfs1.jpgThanks all for the help.. i come with another issue.. now i moved the vm backup to zfs configured server as .lzo format. when i try to restore backup in zpool the whole server is restarted automatically. i cant find any error in syslog and proxmox logs.. how can i troubleshoot..
