Restoring vmdk into Promox 4 running ZFS

[RadioNick]

I have a KVM virtual machine from Proxmox 3 as a VMDK, and I'd like to import it into my recently setup Proxmox 4.2 system, which is setup with ZFS

My storage on the new machine is zfs-local, and it seems to require disks to be raw disk format. I couldn't find examples of this in the documentation at: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Migration_of_servers_to_Proxmox_VE

I'm pretty new to ZFS, so I'm a bit confused on how to accomplish this.

Is your existing vm to import stored as a backup file? PVE should just do the right thin when restoring it.
