Migration failed: Storage 'local-lvm' (LVM-Thin) not available on target node

Subject: Migration failed: Storage 'local-lvm' (LVM-Thin) not available on target node
Message:
Hi everyone,
I am trying to migrate an LXC container from my main node (pve) to a second node (minipve).

• Source Node (pve): Has local-lvm (LVM-Thin pool named 'data').
• Target Node (minipve): Only has a single disk with a local directory storage. There is no LVM-Thin pool available.

When I try to migrate via the GUI, it fails with the error: "storage 'local-lvm' is not available on node 'minipve'" or "Pool data not found in Volume group pve".
Since I cannot change the target storage in the migration menu for containers, how can I move the container to the local storage on the target node without using the shell?
Thanks for your help!

Maybe use Datacenter Manger: https://forum.proxmox.com/forums/datacenter-manager-installation-and-configuration.28/ ? Or use backup and restore (for a central/shared location).
EDIT: If you don't have the same storage on multiple nodes then maybe using separate nodes and PDM is a better choice than a (two-node) cluster.
