→ Applies to: Hyperion 9.x and above

Step 1. Login to SynetoOS GUI (replace <your_ip_address_or_hostname> with the correct information)

https://<your_ip_address_or_hostname>

Step 2. From Virtualization menu, click on Virtual machines

Step 3. Select the VM you want to shutdown

Step 4. Shutdown the VM

Step 5. Write down the Volume ID

Step 6. Connect to SynetoOS appliance via SSH as admin

ssh admin@<your_ip_address_or_hostname>

Step 7. Become Super User

sudo su

Step 8. Navigate to the directory where the VM is located (replace <pool-name> with the name of the pool and <volume_id> with the Volume ID from Step 5)

cd /<pool-name>/syn-volumes/<volume_id>

Example

cd /flash/syn-volumes/f0a29015-54b1-4458-b2e1-59acb96f1c3a

Step 9. Save the disk name (replace <pool-name> with the name of the pool and <volume_id> with the Volume ID from Step 5)

ls -la /<pool-name>/syn-volumes/<volume_id>

EXAMPLE OUTPUT

total 52429056
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root        4096 Jan 15 10:12 .
drwxr-xr-x 10 root root        4096 Jan 10 09:30 ..
-rw-r-----  1 root root 53687091200 Jan 15 10:12 Server3-sda

In this case, the disk is named Server3-sda

IMPORTANT

• All the files of the VM are stored in this folder.
• Save the configuration file named <vm-name>.xml (if already converted from another hypervisor the extension will be missing).
• Disk files of a VM that has been created on Hyperion have the extension .img

Step 10. Copy the disk to the Proxmox server (replace <pool-name> with the name of the pool , <volume_id> with the Volume ID from Step 5, <disk_name> with the disk name from Step 9 and <your_ip_address_or_hostname> with the IP address or hostname of the Proxmox server)

rsync -avhP --sparse /<pool-name>/syn-volumes/<Volume_ID>/<disk_name> root@<your_ip_address_or_hostname>:/var/lib/vz/images/

EXAMPLE

rsync -avhP --sparse /hybrid/syn-volumes/f0a29015-54b1-4458-b2e1-59acb96f1c3a/Server3-sda root@10.1.1.100:/var/lib/vz/images/

Step 11. Create a new empty VM in Proxmox

IMPORTANT
Apply the same configuration used on Hyperion (CPU, RAM, network, etc.).

Step 12. Import the raw disk into the VM in Proxmox, attach it to the newly created VM, and boot from the imported disk if required

IMPORTANT
Ensure the disk format is explicitly defined as RAW.
