Hi.
I'm new in Proxmox, and I need Centos 7 to migrate P2V.
It's table is GPT, and legacy BIOS is used on it's IBM server.
I created VM with disk and used Cloneziila with -iefi parameter to clone physical HDD (500 GB) to local-lvm:vm-102-disk-0, the result is OK.
Then I shrinked partitions on this vm-102-disk-0 (20 GB used and 480 unallocated) using Gparted, it also boots OK.
Then I tried to clone one VM disk (500 GB) to another (30GB) both ways:
a. using Clonezilla (-icds and -iefi parameters)
b. dd and then gdisk (d and e rebuilding backup header and partition table parameters).
No success any way - I can't boot from this shrinked vm-102-disk-2, it shows this rebooting:
Please help me with this case.
P.S. Recently I successfully migrated Centos P2V similar way. But 2 differences - I first shrinked the partitions (not the disk full size, but partitions) on physical server, then second - Clonezilla -icds shrinking cloning. And there was DOS, not GPT.
