16.10 Bulk Status Change for Multiple Target Workloads

You can use the Bulk Status Change tool to modify the state value for target workloads for multiple workloads at a time. Use the Filter and Advanced Search options to locate and select the workloads of interest. The selected workloads must have the same transformation status.

NOTE:The Bulk Status Change option is not available if the selected workloads include one or more workloads in Manual (tracking) mode. Their status is controlled by the PlateSpin Migrate Server that is executing the migrations.

The Bulk Status Change dialog indicates the number of workloads selected and the number of projects you will affect with the Bulk Status Change. The change applies only to the selected items for which the next phase selected is a valid state change.

To change the status of one or more workloads:

  1. In the Web Interface, select Planning in the toolbar, then select the Workloads tab.

  2. Select one or more workloads that you want to set to the same state.

  3. If the Bulk Status Change action is dimmed, pause over the asterisk to view information about what condition is preventing the action from being available, and then deselect the conflicting workloads.

  4. Click Bulk Status Change.

  5. Do one of the following actions for the selected workloads:

    • If the Submit option is available, one or more of the selected workloads is eligible to move to a phase of readiness for transformation. Click Submit to change the workload status to Ready for Transformation.

    • Specify the Next Phase you want to set for selected workloads, then click Apply.
