Agent-based Point-to-point Migration

{{ $t('productDocDetail.updateTime') }}: 2025-12-22

The migration process for Agent-based Point-to-point Migration mode in Sangfor Cloud Migration Platform is as follows:

1.    The source machine installs the migration agent, and the migration tool has two modes: active and passive.

• • In the active mode, the migration agent at the source actively connects to the SCMP and receives tasks issued by the SCMP.

• • In the  passive  mode,  SCMP will take the  initiative to  connect the source machine migration agent to issue migration tasks.

2.    SCMP calls HCI's API interface to create the destination virtual machine and automatically loads the bare-metal restore to start.

3.    After modifying the bare metal restore IP address, the destination virtual

machine actively connects to the SCMP, obtains the migration task through the SCMP, and receives the data transmitted from the source machine

migration agent.


4.     Full data synchronization.

5.     Incremental data synchronization.

6.    Stop the source production, and perform production switching after synchronizing the last difference data.

7.    The destination virtual machine starts compatibility processing and automatically installs performance optimization tools(vmTools).

8.    The destination virtual machine restarts and takes over the production.
