Need help with Create a CT tempalte

[Gad]

ok so i am new to proxmox but its been really kind to me, I really enjoy it so thumbs up to the team!

i have moved my entire Home Automation setup to proxmox CT of Ubuntu, while building i took advantage of the snapshots, really good for noobs, install if something went wrong just go back to the state before

but now when the system is ready i want to create a way to backup, but I am not really sure what to do so please help me understand

1. trying to create convert to a template
so i will be able to take this to another machine right?

but i am getting
error: "unable to create a template, because CT contains snapshots (500)"

when trying to delete snapshots i am getting also allot of errors ?
error: "Task failed lvremove snapshot 'pve/snap_vm-104-disk-0_BeforeAPLTV' error: Failed to find logical volume "pve/snap_vm-104-disk-0_BeforeAPLTV"
"

2. so i tried to migrate to another node i have setup
also error : 2019-04-05 10:20:49 can't migrate local volume 'local-lvm:vm-104-disk-0': owned by other guest (owner = 104)

i guess all can be solved but i am shooting all over the place ... what is the correct way to take what i created and put it on one file? so i can back it up or something like that

as you can see i am not a big system guy... but i believe all will be ok Proxmox is very fun

You can try clonning the ct first and then use thr clone to convert to template.
I thing you have option of clone or copy if you right-click the vm name.

yep tried that also the problem is it duplicated with snapshots and i have the same issue

so can anyone tell me how to delete all snapshots?
i am getting CT locked for each one, when i unlock i am getting also an error i cannot delete

 

[jim.bond.9862]

I never new that you get snapshot when cloning.

Try to delete one of the snapshots from the command line. Maybe it will give us better information.

Firstly pick a CT with some snapshots.

pct listsnapshot CTID
pct delsnapshot CTID snapname

If that doesn't work, you can try adding `--force` to the last command and see if that works.
