====== Migrating a VM Between Clusters in Proxmox 4 and Up ====== ===== Assumptions ===== - Have a shared LVM storage based on ISCSI or LVM - Either have a backup of /etc/pve from the original node or can copy files from /etc/pve from the source node - If you are moving a VM with ID=111 from the source node you need to make sure that you have ID=111 free on the target node ===== The Migration ===== - On the target node go into Datacenter then Storage and add the ISCSI or LVM volumes with the same names as the source node. - open a terminal session on the target node cd /etc/pve/local/qemu-server sftp /etc/pve/local/qemu-server/ get XXX.conf bye (grab of copy of VM config from the source node where XXX is the ID of the VM) - If you copied the config into the correct location you should see a new VM in the Web Console of the target node. - If you have replicated storage correctly your new VM should be startable ===== Notes ===== - Regardless of the storage the name of the volume is critical for the new VM to locate its storage
