migration fail

please post:
- pveversion -v on both PVE nodes
- VM config
- migration and start log of the migrated VM
- journalctl of both PVE nodes
 
Which version of Proxmox do you have at the destination? It will be a problem with the versión of Proxmox at the destination cluster, because live migration is only supported on latest PVE 8 versions

thanks for reply

my pve version is

Dec 09 16:20:06 proxmox4155 pvedaemon[2718544]: VM isn't running. Doing offline migration instead.

if there are no further traces than this means that the migration didn't even start..
 
Hi,
Can a guest not migrate from a cluster to a single node?
yes, it can. Does your token have the correct access rights for the storages on the target? Are the relevant storages on the target all active/enabled?
