help Red Hat Migration Toolkit for Virtualization FAQ
What does Red Hat Migration Toolkit for Virtualization migrate?
Red Hat Migration Toolkit for Virtualization, usually called MTV, is designed to move virtual machines into OpenShift Virtualization. Common source environments include VMware vSphere and other supported virtualization platforms, depending on the MTV release.
Is Red Hat Migration Toolkit for Virtualization the same product as CloudEndure Migration?
No, the names describe different migration products and ecosystems. CloudEndure Migration is associated with AWS, while Red Hat MTV is centered on moving virtual machines to OpenShift Virtualization.
Does MTV require OpenShift at the destination?
Yes, MTV is primarily used with OpenShift Virtualization as the destination platform. It uses Red Hat's virtualization migration workflow to plan, transfer, and monitor virtual-machine migrations inside an OpenShift environment.
Can MTV move workloads without any downtime?
Migration downtime depends on the source platform, workload, storage, and cutover method, so zero downtime should not be promised for every VM. MTV can reduce the final outage window by copying data before the planned cutover.
