- | Been testing proxmux on home back up server. The server is my old production SuperMicro, which is now used for offsite backups in the home office. I have two 6TB drives in a zfs mirror for vm spinning (no spare), and the other 6x 6TBs are in 3 two-way mirrors for actual production backups. I am using the Debian underbelly with the 3 two-way mirrors to run my normal rsnapshot version control scripts, etc., while I use one pool for testing proxmux functionality. So far everything is working fine, and it's fun to use. Until I am offering advanced business / small enterprise support though, there' | ||

- | These commands bring in the image block by block, and then re-assign the virtual disk that VM 500 uses to the image you just brought in, instead of the placeholder image you created in the GUI during the step prior. In order to export a VM at the command line, execute: | ||

- | vzdump < | ||
- | vzdump < | ||

- | This will create a VM in .vma format. Then, you can extract the vma to a raw image as follows: | ||
