Description
To migrate VMs between hosts that do not share storage (storage live migration) by using the xe CLI, not XenCenter.
Instructions
- To move VMs between hosts in the same pool that do not share storage (storage live migration), use the following command:
xe vm-migrate uuid=<vm_uuid> remote-master=<host_name_or_ip> remote-username=<username> remote-password=<password> host-uuid=<destination_host_uuid>
- Because this is a storage live migration, you must also specify the host name, user name, and password for the pool coordinator (master) even though you are migrating within the same pool.
Issue/Introduction
Use command line instead of GUI to migrate VMs to new pool
