ZStack provides innovative cloud infrastructure for ten major industries
VMware-to-ZStack Case Collection
The report provides three major
solutions and customer case studies for transitioning from VMware to ZStack.
Migration Service
The migration service enables complete migration of virtual machine systems and data from other virtualization platforms to the current platform. Supported source platforms include VMware vSphere and other KVM-based cloud platforms. A step-by-step wizard guides you through the end-to-end migration process.
Deploy Migration Service
Step 1: Upload Migration Service Package
After uploading the installation package, the system automatically decompresses it and extracts the required files.
Prerequisites
- Ensure that the migration service license is installed on the platform and that you have sufficient license capacity.
- Prepare the migration service installation package in advance.
- Ensure that an image storage is added to the platform and that the image storage has sufficient storage space.
Procedure
- In the navigation pane, select .
- On the Migration Service page, click Upload.
- In the Upload Migration Service Package dialog, set the following parameters:
- Upload By: Select the method for uploading the installation package, including URL and local file.
- URL/Installation Package: Enter a URL or upload the installation package file.
- Storage Path: Specify a directory path to store the uploaded installation package and its decompressed files.
Note: - Ensure that the directory has sufficient available space. Otherwise, the installation fails.
- Do not use system directories such as /, /dev, /proc, /sys, /usr/bin, /bin, or /opt. Using these directories might cause server issues.
- Review the configurations and click OK.
Step 2: Deploy Migration Service
Select the appropriate specification based on your business requirements to deploy the migration service. Once deployed, you can use the migration service to migrate virtual machines to the target platform.
Procedure
- On the Migration Service page, click Install.
- In the Deploy Migration Service dialog, set the following parameters:
- Migration Service Version: Displays the version of the service to be installed and deployed.
- Data Center: The migration service is deployed through the virtual machine data gateway. Select a data center.
- Run Location: Select where the service runs.
- CPU: Default is 8 cores. Set the number of CPU cores.
- Memory: Default is 8 GB. Set the memory size.
- Storage Location: Specify the data storage.
- Storage Pool: When the storage location is distributed storage, you must specify the storage pool.
- Hard Disk 1: Default is 100 GB. Set the system disk size.
- Migration Network: Specify a distributed port group to use as the migration network. Ensure that the selected distributed port group has network connectivity with both the source platform and the destination platform to guarantee data transfer.
- IPv4 Address: Specify the IP address.Note: The IP address allocation method depends on the configuration of the selected migration network:
- When DHCP is enabled on the migration network, the system automatically assigns an IP address.
- When DHCP is disabled on the migration network, you need to specify an IP address.
- When IPAM is enabled on the migration network, manually specified IP address must be within the selected network segment.
- Review the configuration and click OK.
