After conversion completes, the user sees a form with VM Name and ID
prefilled, and three buttons:
- Clone (instant): qm clone --full via backend, takes seconds
- Copy (re-convert): shows CPU/RAM/Disk fields, re-runs full pipeline
- Clean Up & Finish: deletes staging, returns to start page
Backend: new /api/v1/clone endpoint → provisioner.clone_vm()
Frontend: new /session/clone proxy, api_client.clone_vm()
1. BIOS: provisioner now calls detect_efi() on the first disk when
auto_detect_boot=true. Detects EFI partition via guestfish.
Falls back to user's boot_type if detection inconclusive.
2. Reuse: 'Create Another VM' now shows an inline form asking only
for VM Name and ID, reusing the same disk image, format, and
boot settings from the completed job. No redirect needed.
qemu-img convert is the longest step but previously had no progress
updates — bar stuck at 10% until conversion completed.
Now _convert_with_progress() runs qemu-img in background and polls
output file size every 2s, updating progress with GiB done/total.
Progress flow for single disk:
5% queued → 10% starting → 10-55% converting (real-time)
→ 60% shrinking → 70% creating VM → 75-85% importing
→ 95% configuring → 100% done
The job submission receives the original filename (e.g. Debian_13_VMG.7z)
but qemu-img convert needs the actual VMDK path inside the archive.
Now reuse extract_if_needed() + discover_disk() from converter module
to locate the real disk image before conversion.
Replace stub provisioner with real Proxmox integration:
- qemu-img convert: source → QCOW2 in /mnt/converter/out/{vmid}/
- virt-resize --shrink --resize-force: auto-shrink >30 GiB disks
- qm create: VM with cores, RAM, network, SCSI controller
- qm importdisk: import each QCOW2 into Proxmox storage
- qm set: attach disks, configure boot (OVMF/SeaBIOS), EFI disk, serial
- Auto-destroy existing VM with same ID before recreating
- Background thread execution with in-memory status tracking
- Full logging throughout the conversion pipeline
