[SOLVED] Migration VM Win10 from PVE 6.4 to PVE 7.x

[cmonty14]

Hello,

I'm running an old PVE 6.4 node with several VMs.
Now I want to migrate these VMs to a new PVE 7.x node.

Among the VMs is 1 Win10 deployment, and this VM should be configured with optimal I/O performance on the new PVE 7.x node.

What is the best practice for migrating a Win10 VM to a new PVE 7.x node?
Is it correct to take an offline backup and transfer this backup to new PVE 7.x node and restore the VM?

And what is the optimal configuration for a Win10 VM?


THX

The best practices for Windows guests have not been changed by the jump from PVE 6 to 7.

Backup & restore is a good & reliable way to transfer your VMs.
