First of all, automatically upgrading your Proxmox hosts is probably not the best idea for several reasons. However, if you decide to do it anyway, there's a package called unattended-upgrades in Debian that can do it for you. There are a few...
Check this out, might be helpful. Right now it's written to migrate ALL vm/LXC disks that are on a given storage to a different one, but should be fairly easy to adapt for a single vm...
In your proxmox host, navigate to
cd /etc/pve/lxc
here you will find your lxc configuration files
nano 110.conf
(substitute the number of your lxc that you want to edit)
move your cursor to below the line:

Is there anyway to programically check for a pool, dataset, and volume and if they don't exist offer to build them to streamline the install? The TrueNAS system has both a wizard an manual methods but I have found that each create the volumes...
@jt_telrite I added a dataset validation check to the healthcheck tool, so it should now tell you if it's the correct dataset type.
If you run the latest install.sh from the Alpha branch it should have it. :)
If you use the local-lvm do not have same problem, that situation may is more complex. It's hard to imagine that Pule Storage would lead to this situation, but it seems possible.
When you add a S3 datastore you have to define a cache directory and that has to be local. Tha's why the used space increased.
It is recommended to use a different partition or drive for the S3 cache otherwise your root disk could run out of...
The primary, migration oriented, document is https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Migrate_to_Proxmox_VE
All the best best practices references in multiple official documents are applicable. There is not a single official "XCPg to PVE" guide.

If you want permanent fix, already mentioned in this thread:
- Use SATA disk emulation with Default controller (LSI 53C895A),
- Do not use virtio- emulation in Windows VM,
- Other VMs works fine with virtio (Linux),
This can be fix up to...
It's supported on pve9. (with lvm block volume formated with qcow2, and qcow2 snapshot chain of lvm volume) . Qcow2 is not only for file. (same for vhd on xcp-ng, their lvm volume are formated with vhd)
Often done and your workflow was correct. But you missed some thinks:
All Networkinterface change to dhcp
all software special drivers (vmwaretools...) are to deinstall
Before start vmwareconverter execute Mergeide.reg
On the first Start IDE...

Most of the cluster requirements are there for a reason. However, you might be interested in PDM [1] if you want a common management plane for multiple PVE instances without clustering them.
