Hi,

I am encountering an error when trying to import a qcow2 to my newly created VM. The VM storage is in a network folder. Appreciate if anyone can point out things that I overlook.

Code:
Error message:
root@pve2:~# qm import 160 /var/lib/vz/template/qcow/haos_generic-aarch64-13.1.qcow2 --storage pve1-nfs
unable to parse volume ID '/var/lib/vz/template/qcow/haos_generic-aarch64-13.1.qcow2'
