In this final part of this demonstration, we are going to migrate the VM. We did a successful test migration in the previous step, which means we can start migrating the VMs properly. The migration of VMs is also done by the Azure Migrate: Server Migration tool:
- From the Overview blade of Azure Migrate: Server Migration click the Migrate button.
- In the Migrate blade, you need to specify whether you want to shut down the machines before migration to minimize data loss. Select Yes. Then, select the machines that you want to migrate:
Selecting the VMs to migrate
- Click Migrate.
- The migration process will be started.
- When the migration process has completed, you can view the migrated Azure VM by going to Virtual Machines in the Azure portal:
Migrated VM
It can take a while before the VMs are fully migrated.
In this section, we migrated a VM to Azure. That concludes this chapter.
