 Migration from vCenter 7 to Proxmox VE | Guide

Migrating from vCenter 7 to Proxmox VE involves moving VMs and their associated configurations from VMware’s vSphere environment to Proxmox VE’s virtualization platform.

Today, our experts are going to take us through this to make the switch easier.

1. First, we have to head to the vCenter Environment and note down the configurations and resource requirements of the VMs running on vCenter.
2. Then, we have to create virtual machines in Proxmox VE with matching specifications as the ones running in vCenter.
3. Next, it is time to export the VM images from vCenter. This can be done via cloning or with the VMware vCenter Converter Standalone tool.
4. After that, we have to import the exported VM images into Proxmox VE with the Proxmox web interface or the qm importdisk command.
5. Then, we must set up network interfaces and bridge configurations in Proxmox VE to match the networking requirements of the VMs.
6. Now, it is time to configure storage options in Proxmox VE, like local storage, NFS, or iSCSI, and attach the virtual machine disks accordingly.
7. Then, modify the imported VM configurations in Proxmox VE.
8. Finally, it is time to test and verify the migrated virtual machines in Proxmox VE and ensure they are running correctly. Once it is successful, we have to decommission the vCenter environment.
