[PVE-User] Migration VM from VMWare 5 (.vmdk) to Proxmox

[Antoine Jacques de Dixmude]

That's why I linked the documentation for Windows AND Linux (since you 
did not give any details).

There is plenty of guide on the internet. Like these:
http://blog.bodhizazen.net/linux/convert-vmware-vmdk-to-kvm-qcow2-or-virtualbox-vdi/

Since your vmdk seems to be a flat file, you essentialy need this command :
qemu-img convert SRV-flat.vmdk -O qcow2 SRV.qemu
