Hello everyone,


We've recently set up a Proxmox cluster with two nodes. The first node is now nearly full, and we'd like to move some of our development VMs to the second node to free up space.


Some of these VMs have disks sized at 100GB, but the actual used space is much lower (e.g., 20–30GB). We'd like to migrate these VMs to the second node but shrink the disk size during the migration (e.g., from 100GB to 50GB).


What would be the correct and safest way to do this in Proxmox?
