Import OVF into ZFS

[masteryoda]

Hi

I am an absolute beginner here. I installed a proxmox ve with ZFS. I have a few VMs from esxi 7.0 that i want to move to proxmox. I followed the wiki and now want to know how i can import the ovf file into the zfs storage

i ran qm importovf 102 Caddy2.ovf but i get this

400 not enough arguments
qm importovf <vmid> <manifest> <storage> [OPTIONS]

How do i specify the zfs pool?

this is what i get when i run zpool status |grep -w pool

pool: rpool

& zfs list

NAME USED AVAIL REFER MOUNTPOINT
rpool 46.0G 169G 96K /rpool
rpool/ROOT 28.0G 169G 96K /rpool/ROOT
rpool/ROOT/pve-1 28.0G 169G 28.0G /
rpool/data 18.0G 169G 96K /rpool/data
rpool/data/vm-100-disk-0 2.39G 169G 2.39G -
rpool/data/vm-101-disk-0 15.6G 169G 15.6G -

Do i have to create the VM first before i do this OR the qm command will do that for me automatically?

thanks

hi,

just add the name of your zfs storage at the end. you can also use tab-completion
