Hello everyone,

I'm currently testing two Proxmox host that are clustered and when attempting to migrate a VM from one host to the other I receive this error:

Code:
Jul 21 15:16:42 starting migration of VM 101 to node 'proxmox' (192.168.3.119)
Jul 21 15:16:42 copying disk images
Jul 21 15:16:42 ERROR: Failed to sync data - can't migrate 'local-lvm:vm-101-disk-1' - storage type 'lvmthin' not supported
Jul 21 15:16:42 aborting phase 1 - cleanup resources
Jul 21 15:16:42 ERROR: migration aborted (duration 00:00:00): Failed to sync data - can't migrate 'local-lvm:vm-101-disk-1' - storage type 'lvmthin' not supported
TASK ERROR: migration aborted

Each Proxmox host has it's own local-lvm storage for the VMs if that makes a difference. If not, do I need to provision the local-lvm storage to "thick"?
 
you need to upgrade to the current version, lvm-thin migration was only recently implemented.

I believe I am running the latest version: Proxmox Virtual Environment 4.2-2/725d76f0. I also executed apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade on both hosts. Is there something else I should be looking at?
