Migrating Virtual
Machines with svmotion
Storage vMotion
moves a virtual machine's configuration file, and, optionally, its disks, while
the virtual machine is running. You can perform Storage vMotion tasks from the
or with the
svmotion
command.
No ESXCLI
command for Storage vMotion is available.
You can place the virtual
machine and all of its disks in a single location, or choose separate locations
for the virtual machine configuration file and each virtual disk. You cannot
change the virtual machine's execution host during a migration with
svmotion
.
