Hello.
I've installed a proxmox 6.0 pve in our infrastructure to get rid of our VmWare Vsphere servers
Now, I'm trying to migrate from vmware to proxmox the old computers we had
I should be not so far but it doesn't work, and I don't know why
Here are the parts I did so far :
But when I try to boot, it repeatidly says to me "no bootable device found"
I tried to add a directory storage and use the vmdk and flat-vmdk with vmware storage disk type. Same thing : no bootable device
I don't know how to do ...
TIA for your answers
I've installed a proxmox 6.0 pve in our infrastructure to get rid of our VmWare Vsphere servers
Now, I'm trying to migrate from vmware to proxmox the old computers we had
I should be not so far but it doesn't work, and I don't know why
Here are the parts I did so far :
- transfered via NFS the disk-flat.vmdk and disk.vmdk to a directory in proxmox
- converted the disk-flat.vmdk to disk.raw via qemu-img (qemu-img convert -O raw)
- We use ZFS. I created a machine that uses ZFS pool and created a same size disk
- did a dd to transfer raw disk to zfs pool :
dd if=disk.raw of=/dev/zvol/zfs-datas/vm-100-disk-0 bs=1M - Houra ! the disk is copied. I can see /dev/zvol/zfs-datas/vm-100-disk-0-part1, I can mount it, and look at the files.
- I can look at the partition with fdisk /dev/zvol/zfs-datas/vm-100-disk-0. The first partition is bootable
Bash:
Disk /dev/zvol/zfs-datas/vm-100-disk-0: 160 GiB, 171798691840 bytes, 335544320 sectors
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 8192 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 8192 bytes / 8192 bytes
Disklabel type: dos
