Moving VMs Between Hosts (Manual Live Migration) The CloudPlatform administrator can move a running VM from one host to another without interrupting service to users or going into maintenance mode. This is called manual live migration, and can be done under the following conditions: The root administrator is logged in. Domain admins and users can not perform manual live migration of VMs. The VM is running. Stopped VMs can not be live migrated. The destination host must be in the same cluster as the original host. The VM must not be using local disk storage. The destination host must have enough available capacity. If not, the VM will remain in the "migrating" state until memory becomes available. (OVM) If the VM is running on the OVM hypervisor, it must not have an ISO attached. Live migration of a VM with attached ISO is not supported in OVM. To manually live migrate a virtual machine Log in to the CloudPlatform UI as a user or admin. In the left navigation, click Instances. Choose the VM that you want to migrate. Click the Migrate Instance button Migrateinstance.png: button to migrate an instance From the list of hosts, choose the one to which you want to move the VM. Click OK.
