Hello.

Does qm remote-migrate support migratation of VMs from a single node into a PVE cluster?

I'm trying this scenario and getting a fingerprint not verified error. The fingerprint in question does not belong to the target cluster.

Code:
qm remote-migrate <SOURCE VMID> <TARGET VMID> apitoken='user@pam!token=<SECRET>,host=<HOSTNAME>,fingerprint=<REMOTE_CLUSTER_FINGERPRINT>' --target-bridge <REMOTE_BRIDGE> --target-storage <REMOTE_DATASTORE>

fingerprint 'E4:B4:2D:E5:F2:48:54:1F:7F:A9:EB:0B:B0:69:.........:DC:FF' not verified, abort!
 
The qm remote-migrate command in Proxmox supports the migration of VMs between different nodes or clusters.

You can manually SSH into the target node and accept the certificate/fingerprint, which can help the migration command recognize it as trusted:
ssh root@<TARGET_NODE_IP>
 
Got it. I didn't think it was SSH related, I assumed it to be the PVE cluster fingerprint. Thanks for clarifing.
