When i migrate an LXC I get:
ERROR: migration aborted (duration 00:00:00): storage 'Seagate1TBDriveThree' is not available on node 'pve'

Why can't I not choose a disk on remote?
 
Normaly you can. What Proxmoxversion did you use?
Code:
pveversion -v

In fact, at LXC this seems to be different. Also on 7.0 the target storage must exist. On KVM you can choose the disk.

To test this, create a storage with the same name on the target machine. Then it should work.
Test it with another type of storage. It would be interesting to see if it is automatically converted. E.g. from ZFS to LVM-Thin, or other combinations.

How would I do this? I need to have a spare disk lying around?
Create an NFS/SMB store, of of the disk I wish to migrate to on the target server node? - won't work
Can someone at Proxmox chime in on this issue?
