Virtualbox to Proxmox migrating.

  1. Convert .VDI to .IMG using VBoxManage
  2. Move Image to Proxmox-accessible location.
  3. Convert .IMG to .QCow2 using qemu-image (Step 2 & 3 are interchangeable)
  4. Create blank proxmox VM without disks.
  5. import disk
  6. set boot order, attach disk.
  7. done.

Also, hindsite- you could just copy the .VDI directly to proxmox, and use qemu-img to go straight from .VDI to .qcow2
