Migrating servers

NOTE: Standard users can migrate the servers that are part of the server pool for with they have

permission.

You can migrate only one server at a time. However, after a successful migration, additional servers can

be migrated. During migration, ASM tries to identify an exact match for the hardware. If it is not available

in the server pool, a different hardware can be selected.

You may encounter some issues during configuration of the new servers. In such scenarios, you can

address the issues preventing the proper configuration of the target server, and retry the deployment.

To migrate a server’s configuration to a different server pool:

1. On the Service Details page, perform one of the following actions:

• In the topology view, click a server component, and click Migrate in the box that is displayed

• In the topology view, click a server component, and click Migrate in the right page.

2. In the Migrate Server(s) dialog box, in the State column, select the server, and then in the New

Server Pool column, select the designated server pool to migrate.

NOTE: When you boot from SAN, you always get a migrate option on Service Details page.

Migrate is not available for any other type of deployment so in that case, you do not get

Migrate Server option Service Details page.

Upgrade Components

If an upgrade to ASM has added new required fields to components within the template from which the

service was deployed, the Upgrade Components button will be displayed. While this action is not

mandatory, certain service or resource functions are not available until this upgrade has been completed.

Click on the Upgrade Components button to launch the Update Service Component window. Fields in

this window vary depending on which components contain newly required settings. Complete all the

displayed fields. Click Save.

Adding components to an existing service deployments

After a successful service deployment, you can add one or more application, storage, server, cluster, and

virtual machine components to an existing service.

NOTE: Standard users are allowed only to add components to a service for which they have

permission.

NOTE: You can add components even if they are currently not in the template. For example, if you

have a storage, server and cluster, you can still add VM.

NOTE: You can add components to a service for which deployment is successful or to a failed

service deployment.
