I am an idiot.
I upgraded my PVE to 7.4 today, but it cannot start after the upgrade is completed. I tried searching for a long time but couldn't solve it. So I found a USB drive and installed the new PVE on it. Name the old PVE pve-OLD-134EEXXX during installation.
Now, I can add drives from my old install as LVM's That has data on them but cannot access it
Now I want to import my VM into the new PVE because there is a lot of important data in the virtual machine. What should I do?
The following are the commands I saw while searching, hoping to be helpful.
update:
I mount pve-OLD-134EE27A, it seems to found the disk of the VM .
but I can't find the configuration file of the VM, can anyone help me?
