b If you are migrating a virtual machine with a static IP address, append a command in the
following form to the CSV file.
,VirtualMachine.Network#.Address, w.x.y.z, HOP
Configure the command with the appropriate information for your virtual machine.
n
Change the # to the number of the network interface being configured with this static IP
address. For example, VirtualMachineNetwork0.Address.
n
Change w.x.y.z to be the static IP address for the virtual machine. For example,
11.27.42.57.
n
The HOP string, Hidden, Not encrypted, Not runtime, sets the visibility of the property. This
default property is removed from the virtual machine after a successful import.
For a successful migration, the IP address must be available in a properly configured address
pool. If the address cannot be found or is already in use, the migration succeeds without the static
IP address definition, and an error is logged.
c Save the CSV file.
3 Use the vRealize Automation management interface to migrate your virtual machine to a
vRealize Automation environment.
a Select Infrastructure > Administration > Bulk Imports.
b Click New.
c Enter a unique name for this task in the Name text box, for example, managed migration 10.
d Enter the CSV filename in the CSV file text box by browsing to the CSV filename.
