I tried to run incus-migrate downloaded from the releases page. It seemed to work, but then starting the VM fails:
$ sudo ./bin.linux.incus-migrate.x86_64
[sudo] password for xrd:
The local Incus server is the target [default=yes]: yes

Then, all my running VMs are down and now in an error stated.
For example, now when I run this command to start my server I see this:
$ incus start community-public-do-vm-v2
Error: The instance cannot be started as in Error status
$ incus start windows-dev
Error: mkdir /var/lib/incus/virtual-machines/windows-dev/config: no space left on device
If I use info --show-log I see this:
$ incus info --show-log community-public-do-vm-v2

Indeed, there is no file in that directory.
incus storage list shows a degraded pool but my machine is not on that one:
$ incus storage list

zpool list shows this:

I definitely have more disk space, but unsure how to read that error.
