VMDK to iSCSI

[cpzengel]

Is it possible to convert VMDK to iSCSI via Move Disk?
I´m getting Errors

create full clone of drive virtio1 (SRVVW-253:249/SRVVW_3.vmdk)
TASK ERROR: storage migration failed: error with cfs lock 'storage-RD253': can't allocate space in iscsi storage

Any Workarounds if not?

cheers

It is technically impossible to allocate iSCSI disks - you need to do that on the iSCSI server (and copy the disk there). If you want to manage iSCSI storage with PVE, you need to put LVM on top of the iSCSI volume.
