Add new host and migrate existed vm to new cluster
Hello,
My CloudStack environment is:
version:3.02
cluster1:5 blade server in cluster1,Cpu is 2*6*2.53GHz
My requirement is:
1.I want to add 5 rack server to the CloudStack,and a new cluster
named cluster2 or add a new zone,rack server CPU is 2*6*2.0GHz，
2.migrate some of the existed vm to the new host.
My question is
1.Is there a way to migrate the whole cluster?
2.Is migrateVirtualMachine API support cross cluster or cross zone?

Use migrateVolume API to migrate data disks across cluster (you will need
to detach the data disks from the vm) and migrateVirtualMachine API to
migrate root disk across cluster (you will need to stop the vm). Try this
for one vm and see how it goes.

So nitin,you means migrateVolume API support cross cluster migrate?

Yeah it does. It just skipped my mind. Thanks for pointing this out.
The enhancement I was pointing to would enable live migration.

hey nitin, doesnt volume migrate allow for cross cluster migration? i know
the only caveat to that being, the vm's needing to be powered off to
migrate.

AFAIK no. But please feel free to open a feature request for this in Jira.

ATM it doesn't support it cross cluster/zone. But I guess with the FS
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Enabling+Storage+Xen
Motion+for+XenServer it would be. ETA - 4.2
