A fresh install is also a way. Just backup all your VMs and restore
them later on the new system. I -for myself- would do such a new
install / rename all new and fresh vms to somewhat "original-xxxxx"
and then restore the backup.
So you have your old system beside fresh installed original cubes from
a actual Qbs installation.

Hello All,

I'm a long-time user of Qubes. I'm upgrading my laptop from a 256GB
SSD
to a 1TB SSD. I wanted to check whether it is preferable to clone
the
existing drive to the new one and expand the volumes, or whether I
should do a fresh Qubes install on the new drive and restore from
backup. I've not had great luck with Qubes' restore process in the
past,
but it's been a long time since I've needed to use it. Also, if the
fresh install/restore method is preferable, should I install Qubes
with
the "Do not configure anything" option checked so that none of the
default VMs are created?

Thanks.

Restoring from backup would be my preference, but it doesn't seem to work. It fails immediately. After restoring multiple VMs failed, I attempted to restore *only* a template VM. These are the resulting errors from journalctl (any help would be greatly appreciated):
