→Performing a Live Migration using the Failover Cluster Manager
== Performing a Live Migration using the Failover Cluster Manager ==
Assuming that the system requirements outlined earlier in this chapter have been met and a virtual machine is running on a host within such an environment, a live migration can be now initiated.
Live migrations may be initiated either from within the ''Failover Cluster Manager'' console or using Windows PowerShell. A migration may be performed using the manager as follows:
In the Failover Cluster Manager snap-inconsole, if select the cluster that you want to configure is not displayed, which the source and destination Hyper-V hosts (referred to as nodes within the context of a cluster) belong. In the tree in the left hand pane of the console tree, select the node on which the virtual machine is currently running, right-click Failover Cluster Manager, click Manage a Cluster, on the virtual machine in the main pane and then select or specify the cluster that you want''Live migrate virtual machine to another node''.
