For Migrate servers deployed from Azure Marketplace or using the AWS Quick Start, the ServerIsHostedInCloud parameter is set to the parent cloud value, such as azure or aws. This setting determines what target types are available to you in the Add Target dialog in the Migrate Web Interface, as described in Table 12-2.
NOTE:The settings for the ServerIsHostedInCloud parameter are valid only for automated migrations using PlateSpin Migrate Web Interface. The settings do not apply for semi-automated migrations to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.

Remove the pre-assigned value if you are using the cloud-based Migrate server to migrate workloads from the parent cloud environment to a different target type. |
If you are migrating workloads from the parent cloud of a cloud-based Migrate server to a different target type, you must remove the default value (leave the field blank) for the ServerIsHostedInCloud parameter. After you remove the value, all target types are available in the Add Target dialog in the Migrate Web Interface.
To enable migrations from the source cloud using a cloud-based Migrate server:
Log in as Administrator to the PlateSpin Migrate Web Interface, then open the PlateSpin Server Configuration page at:
https://Your_PlateSpin_Server/PlateSpinConfiguration/
Search to locate the ServerIsHostedInCloud parameter and remove the pre-configured cloud setting. Leave the field blank.
Save your settings and exit the page.
A reboot or restart of PlateSpin services is not required to apply the changes.
