Feature Request: Configurable Timeout for Disk Migration

[arsensimonyanpicsart]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Yes, the default timeout for disk migration in the Proxmox Terraform Provider is set to 1200 seconds, which is insufficient when migrating disks larger than 2TB. This limitation causes migrations to fail due to timeouts, particularly in environments with large storage or slower network speeds.

Describe the solution you'd like I would like the provider to include a configurable option for the disk migration timeout (e.g., disk_migration_timeout). This parameter would allow users to override the default timeout of 1200 seconds and set a value appropriate for their use case, ensuring migrations complete successfully for larger disks or in environments with constrained resources.

Describe alternatives you've considered N/A

Additional context This feature would significantly improve the usability of the Proxmox Terraform Provider for users with large-scale deployments or slower infrastructure. By making the timeout configurable, users can avoid unnecessary migration failures without compromising on automation or efficiency.

Hey @arsensimonyanpicsart 👋🏼

There are several use cases for disk ‘migration’—cloning a template, migrating a VM between nodes, creating a VM from a cloud image, and so on.

Which specific use case are you concerned about? Could you provide a minimal configuration that demonstrates your scenario?

Well, I don’t have any config examples or logs to weigh in on this ticket, and there’s been no response from the author. We do have timeout_migrate, which seems to be working as intended.

Closing this ticket for now, feel free to comment if you have new details.
