Publish the Action for Migrating a Virtual Machine with vMotion
To use the Migrate a virtual machine with vMotion resource action as a post-provisioning operation, you
must publish it.
Procedure
1 Select Advanced Services > Resource Actions.
2 Select the row of the Migrate a virtual machine with vMotion action, and lick the Publish button.
You created and published a vRealize Orchestrator workflow as a resource action. You can navigate to
Administration > Catalog Management > Actions and see the Migrate virtual machine with vMotion
resource action in the list of actions. You can assign an icon to the resource action. See Assign an Icon to
a Resource Action.
You also edited the presentation of the workflow and defined the look and feel of the action.
What to do next
Business group managers and tenant administrators can include the Migrate a virtual machine with
vMotion resource action in an entitlement. For more information about how to create and publish IaaS
blueprints for virtual platforms, see IaaS Configuration for Virtual Platforms.
Create and Publish an Action to Take a Snapshot
By using Advanced Service Designer, you can create and publish a resource action to take a snapshot of
a vSphere virtual machine provisioned with IaaS.
In this scenario, you create a resource action to take a snapshot of a vSphere virtual machine provisioned
with IaaS. In addition, you edit the workflow presentation by using the form designer and change the way
the consumers see the action when they request it.
