Guten Morgen ...

Ich beabsichtige, eine lauffähige QUEMU-Umgebung mit 5 VMs auf einen - baugleichen - Rechner zu migrieren.

Hat jemand damit schon Erfahrungen oder eine step-by-step-Anleitung?

Once virt-manager is set up you should be able to just point it to the vm images you have.
I AM CANADIAN!

I found a tutorial here that makes the whole thing look like a pretty simple process. :)

Exactly -- just shut down the VM, copy the image to a USB drive, and then copy it from the USB drive to the second machine, on which you have already installed qemu and the needed KVM packages. I personally use virt-manager to make it easy to work with my VMs in the KDE/Plasma environment.  Using virt-manager, you simply choose the "Create a New Virtual Machine" icon, then "Import existing disk image", and it should be obvious from there how to start it.
