28.15 Custom Post-Migration Actions

PlateSpin Migrate Client enables you to execute a custom action on your target. You must define and save your custom actions and their dependencies in advance. See Managing Post-Migration Actions (Windows and Linux).

NOTE:Post-migration actions are supported for peer-to-peer and one-time Server Sync migrations only.

When you are setting up a migration job, select the required action, any required command line parameters, and a timeout as required. You must also provide valid credentials for the target workload. If the target workload credentials are unknown, you can use the credentials of the source workload.

To specify a custom post-migration action for your migration job:

  1. Start the migration job. For information about starting a migration job, see Initiating a Migration Job.

  2. In the Virtual Machine Configuration section of the Migration Job window, click Post-Migration.

  3. Specify the following options:

    • Select Action: From the drop-down list, select a custom action previously saved in your library of post-migration actions.

    • Execution Parameters: Specify any required command line parameters for the action. If required, specify a timeout.

    • Credentials: Provide administrator credentials for the target. If they are the same as those for the source, and if they have been saved, select Use Source Credentials.
