2.9 Configuring Advanced Settings for a Cloud-Based Migrate Server

PlateSpin Migrate server images in a cloud marketplace configure PlateSpin advanced settings for workload migrations to the parent cloud, as described in Table 2-6. If you intend to use the cloud-based Migrate server to migrate workloads from the parent cloud environment, you must modify the settings.
