X2P postmigration tasks (Linux)

After you complete an X2P migration, perform the following steps on the destination server:

1.Log in with administrative rights.

2.Install the latest LSP.

3.If necessary, verify the network connections. If NIC teaming is required on the destination server, NIC teaming must be re-established on the destination server after the migration and installation of the LSP.

4.If the source and destination servers must be on the network at the same time:

a.Change the host name of either server or consider reconfiguring the applications.

b.If the IP addresses are static, reassign them.

5.If the license is not a volume license, reactivate it.

6.The mouse and keyboard might not be immediately active after the migration. Wait until the guest operating system automatically installs all required drivers.

X2V postmigration tasks (Linux)

After you complete an X2V migration, perform the following steps on the destination server:

1.If you manually booted the virtual machine by using the Insight Control server migration Virtual Machine Boot CD ISO, you must disconnect the Insight Control server migration Virtual Machine Boot CD ISO and then manually reboot or shut down the virtual machine.

2.Perform a network configuration for the migrated virtual machine guest. To do so, access the remote console for the destination virtual machine host to configure the network connections for the migrated virtual machine guest.

3.(Optional) Add a CD-ROM component to the destination virtual machine. The CD-ROM might be required to install additional Integrated Components.

After the virtual machine reboots, you must perform the following steps on the destination virtual machine guest for hypervisors:

1.Modify the system host name.

2.Install the proper guest tools.

3.If necessary, verify the network connections.

4.The mouse and keyboard might not be immediately active on the migrated virtual machine guest. Wait until all the guest operating system automatically installs required drivers, and then reboot the migrated virtual machine guest when you are prompted.
