i. Copy the executable cp011231.exe to the physical server where the image is
currently running.
ii. Run cp011231.exe to install PINT and start the PINT service.

2. Create a portability group that includes all potential physical and VM host targets.
This step sets up the portability group that defines the list of potential targets for the logical
server. The group should include both physical servers and VM hosts as targets. See
Figure 7 (page 36) .
Figure 7 Creating a portability group
For more information, see “Portability groups” (page 39) .
3. Configure the logical server for activation on both physical and VM host targets.
Modify the logical server configuration as follows:
•
In the Create logical server: identity screen, set the portability group of the logical server
to the portability group created in Step 2.
•
In the Create logical server: storage screen, select a VM datastore (this datastore will be
used to store VM configuration information).
For more information, see “Defining cross-technology logical servers” (page 41) .
•
Present the boot/data storage to the VM hosts in the portability group using the same
LUN and WWN values. For more information, see
“Storage definition” (page 43) .
4. Perform physical to virtual and virtual to physical movements to verify OS configuration.
Move the logical server from physical to virtual and back again. After each move, ensure that
the logical server has booted successfully and the static network configurations have been
applied as expected to the network interfaces present in the new environment. For more
information, see
“Moving between technologies” (page 44) .
