I created an OVF file using the ESXI GUI. I've started the import of the OVF using this directions (https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Migration_of_servers_to_Proxmox_VE) under the Virtual-to-Virtual (V2V) section for VMWare. I used the command 'qm importovf 102 /media/usb/WWW7ovf/WWW7.ovf local-lvm' The VM has appeared in the Proxmox GUI. However, when I tried to start it I got a kernel panic. It looks like it could not mount the drives. Not sure what I missed...
 
Hi,

to help, a bit more info would be good, for example:

what was the vm config before the migration?
what's the current vm configuration?
what os is running inside?
what's the exact error message you get?
