19.10 Undiscovering or Removing Source Workloads

After you complete all migration jobs for a source workload and the cutover completes successfully, you can remove (undiscover) the source workload.

IMPORTANT:

  • Before you delete an object that is in use for configured jobs, you must ensure that all the affected jobs are completed.

  • If block-level transfer is enabled, remove the block-based transfer driver from the source workload:

  • For potential cleanup of files copied during discovery to the target platform, ensure that the target platform is reachable before you remove (undiscover) the target platform.

To undiscover a workload through the Migrate Client:

  1. On the Workloads page, right-click the workload object and select Undiscover Server.

  2. (Block-level transfer) Remove the block-based driver from the source workload.

  3. (Windows) Reboot the source workload.

To remove a workload through the Migrate Web Interface:

  1. On the Workloads page, select the workload, then click Remove Workload.

  2. (Block-level transfer) Remove the block-based driver from the source workload.

  3. (Windows) Reboot the source workload.
