That sounds like a reasonable plan.
If you have a network share that you want to utilize for the backups later on
(never store them on the same machine, 3-2-1 backup strategy and such ;) ) you
could already configure it on the old Proxmox VE server. That way, you don't
have to manually move the backup files over. Since you are decommissioning the
old server, there is no risk of running into issues of two different Proxmox VE
clusters (or separate single nodes), accessing the exact same storage.
Under normal situations, you don't want to give two Proxmox VE clusters access
to the same storage, as you might run into VMID conflicts.
Cheers,

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
