Migration under vCenter

1. Select ESXi under vCenter and select [Enable Migration feature (vMotion) of vCenter] in boot settings.

   When you shut down the virtual machine booted after enabling this option, the changes made while the virtual machine is running are not saved.

2. Start up the virtual machine.

   When this option is enabled, the virtual machine boots up by using the datastore temporarily created by HyperBoot. Therefore, the behavior of the virtual machine becomes heavy in comparison with when the option is disabled.

3. When the virtual machine boots up on ESXi host, go to Web console on vCenter and select [Migration] in Action menu.

   Please make sure [vMotion] is enabled in [VMKernel Setting] -[Available Services] on ESXi host.
   

4. Select [Change both computing resource and storage] in Migration Setting dialog and configure the required settings.
   

   If you select live ESXi host as the migration destination, please select a datastore except for [HBDatastore (n)].
   * This datastore, temporary datastore created by HyperBoot, will be deleted when the virtual machine is shut down.

   You need to select an option other than [Same format as source] in [Select Virtual Disk Format] in [Select Storage] dialog. If you select an option other than [Thin Provisioning], a new VMDK will be created for the disk size.

   The behavior of the virtual machine becomes heavy in migration processing.

   ActiveImage Protector Service is set to [Manual] start on the booted virtual machine. If continuing to use ActiveImage Protector on the migrated virtual machine, please set to [Manual] start [ActiveImage Protector Service] and [ActiveImage Protector Notification Service].

   Please do not select [Power off] in HyperBoot during migration processing. If [Power off] is selected, the migrated virtual machine will be deleted upon completion of migration processing.
