Network IP lists the IP addresses on the source. Map each one to a Target
Network, which is a virtual network on the VMware ESX server.
l
Number of processors—Specify how many processors to configure on the
virtual machine. The number of processors on the source is displayed.

15. Specify your migration shutdown options.
l
Wait for user intervention before cutover—If you select this option,
Storage Mirroring Data Migration will pause the migration process after the
source data has been mirrored to the target, which allows you time to
coordinate any other tasks. Replication will continue during this time. If you
do not select this option, cutover will be automatic, meaning the source will
cutover to the target immediately after the mirror is complete. If your source is
running applications, it is important that you enable this option. During the
intervention time, you can stop your applications that are running on the
source. This lets you stop services cleanly on the source and let that final
application data be replicated and applied on the target. This helps ensure
your applications will start cleanly on the target after cutover.
l
Shut down the source server—Specify if you want to shut down the source
server before the source is cutover to the target, which avoids identity
conflicts on the network. The shutdown will occur after mirroring is completed
but before the source system state is applied to the target server.
