I converted successfully the Linux guest using:
/qemu-img convert SRV.vmdk -O qcow2 SRV.qemu /
When I try to startup the VM in Proxmox I obtain the following error 
message:

    /Running as unit 101.scope./
    /Could not access KVM kernel module: No such file or directory/
    /failed to initialize KVM: No such file or directory

    /
