Hi,

I'm trying to migrate a few VM from a host called proxhost001 to proxhost02.

I have the VM at local-lvm on proxhost001 and i want to migrate to A1-vm-002 on proxhost02 - but it's impossible...





Code:
Task viewer: CT 101 - Migrate (proxhost001 ---> proxhost02)



OutputStatus

Looks like your storage does not have enough space left.
 
Thats correct - that's why i wanted to choose another location instead - but it wasn't possible.

Choose Node then choose which storage. AND it only allowed me to migrate from NodeX local-lvm to NodeY local-lvm.. So if i didn't have local-lvm on NodeY, it refused to migrate too.
 
The target storage has to have 'image' content set for VMs, otherwise it won't show up as available target storage.

Yeah, I know.. But if you have two storage with 'image' - it choose the first in the list. I want to choose which one. Maybe its just stupid with two storage with both 'image' :)
 
It should let you select the storage if your PVE installation is up-to-date.
