You use illegal VM IDs - they should be integer numbers.

"001" is inavlid - should be a integer > 100.

Earlier version allowed to create such illegal VM ids, but it is fixed on 1.2.

Only thing you can do is to rename everything manually.

Thnx for reply. How to rename this manully ? Its not possible in the gui.
Are this the files in /etc/qemu-server ? So they must be renamed ?

the ISO file is not on the new system so you cannot start - remove it on the option tab before you start.

perfect. the VMID issue is solved already and the restore problem is also known and should be fixed some time.

documentation is on the wiki and after release of 2.x we will start a new attempt to make it more complete.

Perfect !!! Proxmox is a great product. I did use Vmware products. But Proxmox and hardware virtualisation like intel -VT have a great performance !!
better then Vmware ESX. Keep up the good job !!!
