Import from VMDK to Proxmox (LVM Group )

[nandex]

Hi,

I have a LVMGroup in a proxmox-cluster and I wanto to import from vmware. I think that I need a LVM group for use HA.
I convert from .vmdk to qcow2 (or raw) with qemu-img.
But when I create a new VM in the LVM I only could used raw format and I don't know where could I find the disk for change with import disk.

Somebody knows how could I import a vmdk to proxmox in a LVM group.

Thanks!

First you convert the vmdk to a raw FILE, then create the new VM with a raw LVM storage (set an appropriate size!). Lastly all you need to do is

dd if=/path/to/converted.raw of=/dev/something/vm-vmid-disk-1 bs=50M
