Backup your containers in Proxmox:
0. vzctl stop 1234
1. tar -C /path/to/ve/roots/1234 -czf ve-1234-`date +%Y%m%d`-backup.tgz .
2. cp /etc/vz/conf/1234.conf .

Then transfer these two files to Owl server and restore them:
4. mkdir -p /new/path/to/ve/roots/1234
5. tar -C /new/path/to/ve/roots/1234 -xzf ve-1234-*-backup.tgz
6. cp 1234.conf /etc/vz/conf/
7. Edit /etc/vz/conf/1234.conf if necessary
8. vzctl start 1234

(Of course, you have to edit commands as necessary)
