Discovered cluster resources for a target VMware vCenter Server are automatically included in the list of resources available for migration. You can use the Exclude action on the Clusters tab in the Platform dialog to hide specified clusters and their member hosts in migration configuration menus. The excluded resource and its child resources are dimmed in the Platform Associations list. Excluded resources do not appear in other dialogs for planning.
NOTE:You should set up exclusions before users begin configuring migrations to the target platform. Transformation Manager automatically removes previously configured associations for the excluded resource, including those assigned to workloads that are in progress and completed.
To exclude a Cluster or Host resource for a target VMware platform:
In the Web Interface toolbar, select Platforms, select the platform, then click Edit.
Under Associations, select the Clusters tab.
Select the appropriate cluster, click Exclude.
If workloads are associated with the cluster, you are prompted to confirm the exclusion. Click Yes to continue, or click No to cancel.
This action also excludes the member hosts of the cluster.
You can use Include to enable an excluded VMware cluster. Including the previously excluded resource does not reinstate any prior associations it had before you excluded it.
