Lab 11, part 2. Migrating virtual machines (continued) This continues the lesson about migrating virtual machine and covers moving a VM from one host to another. Choose the high priority option if you want the migration to move quickly. If you want to change the host and data store at the same time, power the machine off and set up the migration using a new host and data store.

Video Transcription
00:04
Okay. So that the machine is now ready to migrate
00:09
from
00:10
one host to another.
00:13
So simply
00:16
right click Select might rate.
00:22
In this case, I'd like to change the host,
00:25
so click next.
00:28
I'm already on 100 so I'll be going to 1 50
00:32
Validation succeeded. That means all the requirements for the emotion are met.
00:37
We have to have an interface that has the emotion
00:40
traffic enabled. If you remember the VM colonel interface,
00:44
Okay,
00:46
we can change the priority.
00:49
We'll leave it at the default here. But you could go to standard priority
00:54
if you have. Um,
00:56
if you're not in a hurry and you wanted basically
01:00
utilize your network resource is a little bit more
01:03
gently that if you use high priority,
01:07
we want this to go fast. We'll pick high priority.
01:10
There is our finished screen
01:12
and we'll start the migration.
01:18
This might take a little while. Let's go to our host
01:23
and
01:23
performance tab.
01:34
More interested, maybe in the memory on the host right now.
01:40
Everything looks good so far,
01:42
Check back in a little bit.
01:44
Okay? So our virtual machine has now been migrated to
01:48
the
01:49
uh, the other host had a changing I p address.
01:52
So it's now host 100 host 200.
01:57
There was a conflict with my eye scuzzy port with the old dress.
02:00
So be careful when you're allocating eyepiece that you'd pick a decent scheme and keep good good notes
02:07
anyways, So now the PM is here,
02:10
and I've successfully migrated, so I want to migrate again.
02:16
In this case, I want to change the host in the days store. At the same time,
02:22
you'll notice that, uh,
02:23
with my current configuration, I have to power this machine off
02:28
before I can do that.
02:30
So let's quit this of hard machine down.
02:42
And now I can set up a migration using
02:46
a new host and a data store.
02:52
So I'm moving back to the host. It came from originally, which is the 0.100.
03:01
Now I can pick
03:04
the data store. I'd like the V M to be stored on, so I'll pick the second
03:09
local disc
03:13
and let's go with thin provisioning
03:16
that might speed up the process of deployment somewhat.
03:21
That way the disc will grow as data has written to it.
03:35
Okay, and then we click finish.
03:42
It's like it's moving along pretty quickly,
03:44
Freddie. At 29%.
03:50
We'll check back in when this is completed.
03:53
All right, we can see that the V M has now moved back to the other host.
04:01
And if we clicked summary tab, we can see that storage has also been changed.
04:06
So it went from the shared NFS storage
04:10
to local disc on
04:13
on that host.
04:19
All right. And that concludes lab number 11
04:24
and last number 12 will be doing more work with virtual machines
04:28
where we will be registering and un registering machines from the inventory.
04:32
We'll do a little bit with snapshots.
04:35
All right, so I'll see you there.
