Hi,

I had a similar problem to this myself previously.

When you use vzmigrate one of the first things it does in the migration process is copy over the config file for the VPS.

I think this is where the problems start as it uses the information in this config file to know where the files for the VPS should be copied to.

In the case of proxmox as already stated in the other post you mention this is /var/lib/vz

In a Centos environment /var/lib is usually on the / partition and often may only have a partition size of around 5 gb if you follow the recommendation for partitioning for use with openvz

This is most likely why you are running out of disk space. In these circumstances I've found the easiest why to migrate from proxmox is to use vzdump, scp the archive to the new server and then vzrestore on the new server.
