5.11 Specifying the Network Adapter Type to Use for Migrations to Hyper-V during Target Take-Control

During the Target Take-Control process for workload migrations, PlateSpin Migrate selects the adapter type used based on the Workload OS and Target Virtual Machine type. For migrations to Microsoft Hyper-V, you can leave it to Migrate to decide, or specify a preferred network adapter type to use as Synthetic or Legacy.

To specify the preferred network adapter type for Hyper-V targets:

  1. Log in as Administrator to the PlateSpin Migrate Web Interface, then open the PlateSpin Server Configuration page at:

    https://Your_PlateSpin_Server/PlateSpinConfiguration/

  2. Locate the PreferredHyperVNetworkAdapter parameter and edit its value as Synthetic or Legacy, depending on your Hyper-V requirement.

  3. Save your settings and exit the page.
