vmdk based migration
Last updated:
VMWARE
If NFS only RO
- Upload vmdk/vmx files to datastore, based on free space. Create the folder with VMNAME.
- Register the vmx file. Specify all the disks.
- We can look at the vmx file to view all the paths. No need to edit anything.
If NFS has RW access
- Map the NFS to VMware.
- Register the VM using the .vmx file.
- After registration, update the vmdetails (network should exist on target)
- Perform storage migration.
