Thanks for your post.
There are a bunch of issues with V2V when converting to Proxmox9. Dev team are working on those.

this error usually happens because Proxmox 9 disables password-based root SSH by default, so you must enable SSH password login or use a user with proper permissions before StarWind V2V Converter can connect.

Thanks for your feedback and Staff. The errors that occur because of Proxmox 9 I think need to be fixed to ensure more stable operation.
