I followed this guide:

https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Migration_of_servers_to_Proxmox_VE#Importing

I ran the following commands:

Code:
qm importovf 200 /mnt/pve/NetworkVolume1/dump/Dropbox.ovf LocalVolume1
qm set 200 --bios ovmf
sed -i 's/scsi0:/sata0:/' /etc/pve/qemu-server/200.conf

but the VM will not boot

I checked the boot order (screen shot attached)

other info:

Code:
root@proxmox1:~# qm config 200
bios: ovmf
boot: order=sata0
cores: 4
memory: 4096
name: Dropbox
ostype: win10
sata0: LocalVolume1:vm-200-disk-0

Thank you! I checked my original VM and it was set to bios. I switched proxmox back to default and it booted!
