FYI, there was already some effort in adding an OVF importer to the API/GUI: https://lists.proxmox.com/pipermail/pve-devel/2021-June/048564.html https://lists.proxmox.com/pipermail/pve-devel/2021-June/048563.html While it stalled a bit but we still plan to pick that up again in the near future. cheers, Thomas _______________________________________________ pve-devel mailing list pve-devel@lists.proxmox.com https://lists.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-devel
