Booting a physical destination server automatically by using the migration wizard
1.Identify the source server and select volumes to migrate in steps 1 and 2 in the server migration wizard.
2.In step 3 of the P2P or V2P migration wizard, select Auto Boot - Let server migration boot the destination server.
3.Enter the iLO IP address and iLO credentials.
4.Enter the static IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway (Optional). If the network has a gateway, enter it here to ensure connectivity. Optionally, you can also select the Duplex Settings.
5.Click Next.
6.To view the boot progress, click Launch iLO, and then log on to the iLO remote console.
iLO boot prerequisites
You must meet the following requirements to use the feature of booting from iLO:
•The iLO user credentials provided must have Virtual Power and Reset and Virtual Media access applied.
•The browser must be configured to support HTTP 1.1. To add this support:
1.On your web browser, open Internet Options, and then click the Advanced tab.
2.As appropriate, select Use HTTP 1.1 and Use HTTP 1.1 through proxy connections.
•An iLO Advanced license must be applied to the destination server iLO.
•At least 300 MB of free space must exist on the application station for each iLO boot. This free space should exist on the partition on which Insight Control server migration is installed. This space is recovered after the migration is complete or the boot job times out.
After the destination server is booted to the proper Boot CD ISO, use the Boot CD application to configure the destination server and launch the destination agent. From the Boot CD application, click Help for instructions.
If the migration is not started within 2 hours of the server being powered up through iLO, the server migration will time out and power down the destination server.
Manually creating and booting a virtual destination server
Prerequisites for manually creating and booting a destination virtual machine
This section lists the prerequisites for manually creating a virtual machine for different migrations.
To manually create and boot a destination virtual machine, you must create the virtual machine with the prerequisites specified, and then attach the Insight Control server migration Virtual Machine Boot CD ISO to the virtual machine.
The following sections list the special steps required to prepare virtual machines for booting to the Insight Control server migration Virtual Machine Boot CD ISO.
Prerequisites for booting a virtual machine in Microsoft
Make sure that the following parameters are met:
•The virtual machine does not have more than three disks attached.
•The virtual machine has at least 1024 MB of memory.
•The network adapter is a legacy network adapter.
•The network adapter is connected to a virtual network switch that is connected to an external network.
•The virtual disks that you created are attached to an IDE controller.
