Looking on OS supported to migrate with Nutanix Move v3.6.0 I see CentOS 8.2 as supported but when I add a CentOS 8.2.2004 VM to be migrated from ESXi 6.7u2 to AHV 20170830.434 I get this warning:This VM is not on the AHV supported OS list. To proceed with migrating this VM, please be sure to bypass guest operations and take care of installing AHV device drivers separately. This VM has a guest OS which is not supported on ESXi. Please remove the vm from the migration plan if migrating to ESXi.Is this expected?
Looking for advise, Trying to add a Hyper-V host to Move 3.5.0, but just getting the following error and nothing else, Hyper-V operation [Get Process Info] failed. Getting no other alerts/Errors.
We are transferring vdisks from one Nutanix environment to another. We are going from Euphrates 5.5.8 to Euphrates 5.9. The copy seems to work but then after a while (maybe 15 minutes) the files in the new environment disappear. We’ve tried this several times with the same results. One vDisk is around 26 GB and the other is 2 TB. Has anyone seen this and what is the problem and the solution?
Nutanix Move (a.k.a Move) is a cross-hypervisor mobility solution to move VMs with minimal downtime. Move supports migration from the following sources to targets, with first platform being the source and second platform being the target.VMware ESXi to Nutanix AHV VMware ESXi on legacy infrastructure to VMware ESXi on Nutanix Microsoft Hyper-V to Nutanix AHV AWS EC2 to Nutanix AHV AWS EC2 to VMware ESXi on Nutanix Nutanix AHV to AWS EC2Since infrastructure underneath platform is different, a small downtime is incurred during cutover from any of the preceding sources to targets.If this sounds Interesting, but you have a lot queries about this Amazing Solution i.e. NUTANIX MOVE.Relax…!!Here is link to answer most of your queries – Move FAQsFor more details refer to Move User Guide
Good afternoon, all!I’m setting up a Move project to migrate some VMs from Hyper-V to AHV. In the 3.6 Move user guide, it says “You need PowerShell version 4.0 or later.” Do we need it on each source VM, on the HV hosts, on the management workstation, or all three?Thanks to all for looking! Gregg
We need to migrate one VM (a virtual appliance) from one AHV to another with no p connection between the two The AHV versions are different (Euphrates 5.5.8 and Euphrates 5.9). What is the best way to accomplish this.?
How to migrate ESX VM with independent disks and PCIE to AHV
This video demonstrate how Nutanix Calm with the help of Nutanix Move can migrate workloads from the public cloud to on-prem as day-2 operations. This custom integration uses Move APIs to automate the entire process via Calm. Let the community know how you are using Nutanix Calm and Move. Share your thoughts in the forums.
We are excited to announce the release of Nutanix Move 3.6.0 Adopting new infrastructure platforms often requires organizations to migrate existing workloads against tight timelines. Nutanix Move simplifies this process with infrastructure-level bulk VM migrations, removing the friction associated with onboarding new infrastructure, and enabling businesses to quickly leverage the full potential of Nutanix Enterprise Cloud, with near-zero VM or application service outage during migrations. Nutanix Move 3.6.0 is released and the bits are available on the portal for download. Release Notes User Guide What's New in Release 3.6.0 Added Support for Nutanix Clusters on AWS - Move now supports migration to Nutanix Clusters on AWS. Added Support for SUSE 15 VMs - Move now supports migration of SUSE 15 VMs. Added Support for UEFI with Secure Boot for Hyper-V - Move now supports UEFI with secure boot for Hyper-V. Added Support for UEFI with Secure Boot for ESXi - Move now supports UEFI wi
See the new migration plan testing feature that was added with Move 3.5 in action. Have you used Move? What has been the largest migration you performed? Be the first to reply and let us know.
Is there a document that guides on how to use Move migration via command line interface? I know that there is a web GUI tool. But, I am wondering if there is another way thru CLI.
Hi folks, I have done a successfull VM migration using Nutanix Move 3.5.2 from ESXI 6.5 to AHV 20191030.415. All migration process is validated and fine, the VM can be migrated from ESXI to AHV but it failed when I try to boot in from AHV console as this picture :
Does anybody encountered this kind of error? when migrating ESXI to AOS. After how many hours of seeding, It show this error. However it is ready to cutover, but doesn’t want to proceed further because of this error. I already checked this VM in EsXi, it already have a VMware tools installed. Hope i can get ideas and recommendations from you guys. Thanks!
i want to migrate my phyical linux server to Nutanix. is there any native nutanix tool to prform this activity?
I hope this is an easy question. Am I allowed to increase the VCPU and memory resources on the Move VM/Docker without issues? I know hot-plug is disabled, so it’s in the reboot-world. I found that we are pegging the CPUs out when we are queueing migrations, so I want to try to get some more throughput on it to take advantage of our 25Gb infrastructure. Thanks
My migration team is doing a good job trying to push as many VM’s through Move to stage reboots after-hours. I’ve noticed that replication slows way down when we have about 15-20 VM’s waiting for cutover. I have checked the load on the Move VM and increased the amount of CPUs. Replication goes well (25Gbit network), but now we only have 2 seed streams going with 19 waiting to cutover. I have 4 other VM’s that are in the “seeding data” phase, but haven’t started their copies. Is this a bottleneck within the Move postgres database? Any ideas on how I can get more VM’s copying in parallel? Thanks,
is there any way to created additional users in nutanix move? -jai
New with Nutanix Move. Deplyed Nutanix Move and need to set IP up. Selecting new Nutanix-Move VM > Console » move login is required, which was not asked to set during MOVE setup. What log-on info needed to be set and where, or is there a standard logon there?
We are excited to announce the release of Nutanix Move 3.5.0 Adopting new infrastructure platforms often requires a migration of pre-existing systems. Nutanix Move simplifies bulk migration of existing VMs to Nutanix, eliminating the friction associated with onboarding new IT infrastructure. Businesses can quickly leverage the full potential of Nutanix Enterprise Cloud with near-zero VM downtime during the migration from vSphere ESXi, Hyper-V and Amazon AWS to Nutanix AHV and vSphere ESXi to ESXi on Nutanix. Move also support migration of VMs from Nutanix AHV to Amazon AWS. Nutanix Move 3.5.0 is released and the bits are available on the Portal for Download. Move 3.5.0 Release Notes User Guide New features included in this release; Introduced Migration from AWS to ESXi - You can now migrate VMs from AWS to ESXi on Nutanix appliances. Introduced Test Migration - You can now perform a test migration of the VMs on the target environment before the final cutover. Enhanced Move User Interfa
Hi, I have a question, is it possible to exclude a timeblock from syncing? We want to migrate a machine, wich may not delay in the nigthly schedules. We are now running version 3.4.1
There are a number of reasons you might want to migrate a VM manually in or out of a Nutanix AHV cluster. You could be working with a situation not supported by Move, such as stand-alone ESXi without vCenter or no network path from the old hypervisor to the Nutanix cluster. Possibly you want to save a VM's disks to portable storage media and physically transport them rather than push them across the WAN. If you're wanting to move VM data in or out of AHV, the methods have been provided in this article "Transferring Virtual Disks to an AHV Cluster". If you're just looking to migrate current, working VMs from an ESXi or Hyper-V cluster Nutanix highly recommends using Nutanix Move to migrate VMs to AHV. The manual migration methods require attention to detail and generally involve a larger time investment and more downtime to complete the move. I won't go into full detail on the steps, that's already done in the article I linked, but I will highlight that for any VM you’ll need VirtIO
