Maili HI

Trying to transfer and start up a VM from a 5.1 node to a new 5.1 node from the CLI with a
qm start 122

And I get an error:
kvm: -drive file=/hd6/proxmox/images/122/vm-122-disk-2.raw,if=none,id=drive-scsi0,format=raw,cache=none,aio=native,detect-zeroes=on: Could not open '/hd6/proxmox/images/122/vm-122-disk-2.raw': Invalid argument

The same error is reported if I try to create a new VM on this node also, the difference being the file type a qcow2 vs raw.

In both cases, the file does indeed exist:

ls -l /hd6/proxmox/images/122/vm-122-disk-2.raw
-rw-r----- 1 root root 34359738368 Nov 15 09:41 /hd6/proxmox/images/122/vm-122-disk-2.raw
