Migrating Virtual Machines From Vsphere To Red Hat Openshift Virtualization With The Migration Toolkit For Virtualization
Red Hat News, Tuesday, September 17th, 2024
When an organization decides to investigate a new hypervisor platform, such as Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization, the first question is usually how to migrate virtual machines from your existing infrastructure into OpenShift Virtualization.
This is where Red Hat Migration Toolkit for Virtualization comes in. MTV is an OpenShift operator that adds migration functionality at scale and allows your organization to more quickly and easily migrate virtual machine workloads from vSphere, Red Hat Virtualization (RHV), Red Hat OpenStack Services on OpenShift, or other OpenShift Virtualization clusters.
Once your virtual machines are migrated to OpenShift Virtualization, your organization can reclaim the old hypervisor infrastructure and begin the process of containerizing the workloads that run in the virtual machines without ever needing to leave the OpenShift platform.
