Migration plan options

On the Plans for virtualization page of the {ocp} web console, you can click the {kebab} beside a migration plan to access the following options:

• Edit Plan: Edit the details of a migration plan. If the plan is running or has completed successfully, you cannot edit the following options:

  • All properties on the Settings section of the Plan details page. For example, warm or cold migration, target namespace, and preserved static IPs.

  • The plan’s mapping on the Mappings tab.

  • The hooks listed on the Hooks tab.

• Start migration: Active only if relevant.

• Restart migration: Restart a migration that was interrupted. Before choosing this option, make sure there are no error messages. If there are, you need to edit the plan.

• Cutover: Warm migrations only. Active only if relevant. Clicking Cutover opens the Cutover window, which supports the following options:

  • Set cutover: Set the date and time for a cutover.

  • Remove cutover: Cancel a scheduled cutover. Active only if relevant.

• Duplicate Plan: Create a new migration plan with the same virtual machines (VMs), parameters, mappings, and hooks as an existing plan. You can use this feature for the following tasks:

  • Migrate VMs to a different namespace.

  • Edit an archived migration plan.

  • Edit a migration plan with a different status, for example, failed, canceled, running, critical, or ready.

• Archive Plan: Delete the logs, history, and metadata of a migration plan. The plan cannot be edited or restarted. It can only be viewed, duplicated, or deleted.

  Note	Archive Plan is irreversible. However, you can duplicate an archived plan.

• Delete Plan: Permanently remove a migration plan. You cannot delete a running migration plan.

  Note	Delete Plan is irreversible. Deleting a migration plan does not remove temporary resources. To remove temporary resources, archive the plan first before deleting it.
