Live VM Migration

BDRSuite’s Live VM Migration feature enables businesses to seamlessly migrate the instantly booted virtual machines (VMs) that are in use to the production environment permanently without any interruption.

Key Benefits of Live VM Migration

Improved availability

With Live VM Migration, businesses can ensure high availability of their critical VMs by migrating them while still in use.

Increased uptime

Live VM Migration helps businesses reduce downtime by allowing VMs to be moved to production while they are still running, which minimizes disruption to service.

Seamless migration

The Live VM Migration process is seamless and transparent, as the VM continues to run with no service interruption.

How it works

Instant Boot Live Migration is the process of permanently migrating the virtual/physical machine backup data to the production environment that was instantly booted.

• If one of your production physical or Virtual Machines is crashed or corrupted, you can instantly boot the backup using the Instant Boot VM Recovery. During Instant Boot VM, BDRSuite Backup Server creates an NFS mount to the ESXi host and starts to boot the backup data. In this case, the backup data is still the backup storage repository where it was originally stored
• Later, you can choose to perform a live migration, in which backup data from the backup storage repository is migrated to the datastore of a production ESXi Server in the background. All changes made during the instant boot session will be carried over during the live migration. You can perform the Live Migration to the same host where it was instantly booted or to a different host
