3.0 States and Sub-States

The Transformation Update API accepts sub-states from the PlateSpin Migrate Server, as shown in Table 3-1. The reported sub-state appears in the Status column of the Workloads list. A Warning condition overrides the display of the sub-state.

Transformation Sub-State

Description

MIGRATE_SERVER_NOT_CONFIGURED

The PlateSpin Migrate Server is not yet available on the replication network.

NOT_CONFIGURED

The PlateSpin Migrate Server does not know about the workload.

DISCOVERING_WL

The PlateSpin Migrate Server has been told to go discover one of our workloads (2 to 15 minutes).

WL_DISCOVERED

The PlateSpin Migrate Server has finished the workload discovery process.

DISCOVER_TARGET_HOST

The PlateSpin Migrate Server does not yet have the information for the target host. Discovery is in progress.

DISCOVER_WAIT

The target host is a physical machine. The user needs to insert the LRD CD and register the host with the PlateSpin Migrate Server.

TARGET_HOST_DISCOVERED

The PlateSpin Migrate Server has the necessary information for the target host.

MIGRATE_SERVER_INSUFFICIENT_LICENSES

The PlateSpin Migrate Server has no license available to configure this workload.

WL_NOT_CONFIGURED

The PlateSpin Migrate Server has discovered the workload, but the destination workload details have not yet been defined.

CONFIGURE_FAILED

Failure occurred while configuring the workload in the PlateSpin Migrate Server.

PREPARE_FAILED

Failure occurred while preparing the migration environment to begin replicating the workload.

READY_TO_REPLICATE

All discovery work for the workload is complete. The PlateSpin Migrate Server is waiting to perform the first full replication.

INITIAL_REPLICATION

The PlateSpin Migrate Server is performing the first, full replication of the workload. This might take many hours to complete.

INCREMENTAL_REPLICATION

The PlateSpin Migrate Server is performing a smaller, incremental replication of the workload. Incremental replications can occur only after a successful full replication.

Incremental replications are fast for Block and Block with Driver disk copy methods. Incremental replications for the File disk copy method might take as long as a full replication.

INCREMENTAL_REPLICATION_WAIT

The PlateSpin Migrate Server cannot perform incremental replications while the workload is in the Pre-Cutover Testing state.

CUTOVER_IN_PROGRESS

The cutover process has started. The process can take between 5 minutes and several hours.

CUTOVER_FAILED

The cutover process failed. This is a severe error.
