Hi all.
I'd need to move a VM (I have got from another VM management systems) into ProxMox v5.2.
All my VMs running have their disk images allocated inside an LVM partition, so should this very one.
I have the raw mage file but cannot find a way to "dump" it straight into a VM partition.
Is this possible (by CLI)?
 
Hello,

Select your VM, in Hardware TAB select the disk you want to move and click on "Move disk" button. Select your LVM Target storage and click apply. This can be done online and you can chose to keep (default) or delete the source disk.
