Nice presentation. Just 2 observations here. At 1.19 you dont even have to use a disk of 1gb, except if you wanted to show the procedure of deleting it afterwards. Else you just remove the disk for the VM. What might be useful to be mentioned is that upon converting the disk to .raw image, while it performs better, you loose snapshots which to some it is crucial.

You are right

Or you use ZFS as the storage, and then you have snapshots back. And using ZFS is probably a good idea.

@@dimitristsoutsouras2712 not sure to understand your reply, but ZFS with RaidZ2 works like a charm, and I trust that now more than any HW Raid.

@@davidponzone5103 we both talking about a different thing as it seems. I didn t say anywhere that zfs software raid is inferior to h/w raid. I am using zfs for years so I know first hand what it can do. All I am saying is that zfs needs to have access to disks without the interfer3ence of a h/w raid. In the video nowhere mentioned if he uses h/w raid card underneath and just mentioned that. We are saying the same thing from different perspectives here.

Is it necessary to copy the vmdk to the pve prior to run the command? The video is really great and explaining every step, but I have my old vmdk files on a usb drive, I mounted into /mnt and tried to run the command from there, but that gives me: "copy failed: command '/usr/bin/qemu-img convert -p -n -f vmdk -O raw /mnt/Cloud/CLOUD-flat.vmdk zeroinit:/dev/pve/vm-100-disk-1' failed: exit code 1" I'm currently copy the files also into /var/lib/vz and will try from there :) [EDIT] Could solve it, i need to reference the base .vmdk not the flat one

Of course you should have the files before you run the command

@@syncbricks I already had the files on the system via a mounted usb drive. I was just wondering if the files need to be copied to the vz directory.
