Hello. I have a proxmox 5.4-12 server running in the cloud. I would like to migrate these machines to a local server within a cluster. But the Cluster version are 6.2-4 servers. I can schedule the machines to shut down without a problem. But I still don't know how best to migrate these VMS. Can someone help me please?
 
Hi,
if it is just for migration purposes it is not necessary to implement a fully working Proxmox-Backup-Server and make it reachable/usable from both sides. A manual backup should suffice. Please read
Disclaimer: I did not try this actually. This is just my 2¢-approach I would try first...

Good luck :-)

PS: having a reliable backup server is a really good idea nevertheless!
