Hello,

Not sure if you got your issue solved but when doing a migration from openvz to proxmox I feel into the need for converting ploop disks to simfs since proxmox does not support ploop yet (not considered as stable).

For that, I adapted a script with the opposite goal (convert simfs to ploop) and this worker well for me in many containers. Here's the gist (sorry, still can't post links):

There were two containers in which this failed with "Disk quota exceeded" but turned out the issue was that both had maxed out the inodes and it hadn't been saved to config (probably I just set the values with vzctl and forgot the --save flag) - fixed that and it worked.
