Dear All,
Good morning
We are going to have ProxMox 8 enterprise edition setup, installation is
going on.

Earlier we were using ProxMox 6.X Community Edition, this is a  separate
unit which we were using . Now once the enterprise edition is up, we plan
to move all the VM instance which were on the old 6.X  CE to the  separate
ProxMox 8 enterprise edition

I am planning to move the old vm form the CE (6.X) to ProxMox 8 (Enterprise
Edition)  in the following way

   - Take  backup of the VM at CE using the backup option
   - scp/rsync  the  backup files to the Prox Mox 8 Enterprise version
   - Use the restore option from the new server to restore the image


Like to get advice, if the above mentioned steps is apt when you are going
to move from one of the older CE edition [6.X] to the latest enterprise
edition

Thanks
Joseph John
