We have a ProxMox install with a few VMs. We'd like to move them to our ESXi system. I was hoping there was a way to restore a ProxMox backup to a VMware-compatible VM. Any hope?
@rwhitney welcome to the forums! Ok, so let's start with a few questions that first I'm curious about. What functionality or limitations did you see with Proxmox? I am definitely a VMware fan and have been using it for two decades now, but I am always curious what the driving factors are behind any move to a different platform.
Also, what types of VMs do you need to move? Are these Windows machines, Linux, or a combination? What version of Proxmox are you currently running? Also, do you already have your VMware vSphere environment stood up? Are you running vCenter Server along with ESXi, or just ESXi?
Part is familiarity - been using ESXi for quite a while. Also, we use VEEAM Backup & Replication, which makes the ProxMox tools appear privative. Bottom line - I don't want 2 virtualization systems. So I'm settling on the one I know.
