Chapter 1. Introduction
The Red Hat Infrastructure Migration Solution enables you to move your virtual machines from VMware to Red Hat Virtualization.
Red Hat Virtualization (RHV) is an enterprise-grade virtualization platform built on Red Hat Enterprise Linux. With Red Hat Virtualization, you can manage your entire virtual infrastructure, including hosts, virtual machines, networks, storage, and users, from a centralized graphical user interface or with a REST API.
The infrastructure migration is performed with Red Hat CloudForms. CloudForms is a user interface, providing the control and automation required to manage challenging enterprise environments.
The infrastructure migration process has 4 key phases:
Installation:
- Installing and configuring Red Hat Virtualization, Red Hat Virtualization Host(s) or Red Hat Enterprise Linux host(s), and Red Hat CloudForms
- Creating and configuring the RHV conversion host(s) and configuring the maximum number of concurrent migrations.
