PVE 7.1-8: conversion qcow2 >> raw for lxc fails

[thommie]

I am migrating some KVM VMs to lxc. The direct conversion of the qcow2 images fails on the command line:

qemu-img convert -f qcow -O raw vm-109-disk-1.qcow2 /mnt/data/images/114/vm-114-disk-3.raw
qemu-img: Could not open 'vm-109-disk-1.qcow2': qcow (v1) does not support qcow version 3
Try the 'qcow2' driver instead.

There seem to be two versions of qcow filesystems. But the system is up-to date, therefore I dont understand the error msg ...

Any ideas?

try " -f qcow2"

... arrggh, very obvious, ... the old RTFM rule is still true ;-)

thanks anyway.
