[cisco-voip] vMotion w/o Shared Storage

[Daniel Pagan]

Thanks - that’s what I figured and just tested with no issues. Seems the non-shared storage caveat for vMotion is a non-issue in ESXi 5.1 and higher.

I was also concerned of partition alignment but I guess that would be a non-issue as well since the vmdk is already provisioned. The move to the stand-alone datastore is nearing completion so I’ll double check the start block size once it’s done just to be sure!

Shutdown, yes. Running, no.

Thanks,

Quick question…

vMotion of a shut down UCM between two hosts without shared storage using vCenter. Is this supported? The virtualization document for UC platforms says vMotion is supported on shared storage, so I figured to ask. Is this migration method supported?
