Hi!

How work "new" Live Migration with local disks? May be need activate some option?

In Proxmox 4.4 this feature work into console with "qm migrate ... " command. How work this feature in Proxmox 5.0? Console or Web control panel?

2017-07-06 14:15:01 starting migration of VM 100 to node 'pve1' (10.0.1.191)
2017-07-06 14:15:01 found local disk 'local-lvm:vm-100-disk-1' (in current VM config)
2017-07-06 14:15:01 can't migrate local disk 'local-lvm:vm-100-disk-1': can't live migrate attached local disks without with-local-disks option
2017-07-06 14:15:01 ERROR: Failed to sync data - can't migrate VM - check log
2017-07-06 14:15:01 aborting phase 1 - cleanup resources

Currently this works only via CLI, with the mentioned option.

But I assume this will be enabled also on the GUI in one of the upcoming versions.

Oh that's why it fails now. Back when we use the Proxmox VE 5.0 Beta 2 version, we could perform this online migration with local storage on top of ZFS volume.

Hope the feature will come back in future version.

Update:
Oh the CLI didn't work on storage replication. :(

Code:
can't live migrate VM with replicated volumes
