Web Interface: The Workloads list includes:
All source workloads discovered using the Web Interface
Source workloads in the default network discovered using Migrate Client
NOTE:Use the Web Interface to discover source workloads in non-default networks if you plan to migrate them using the Web Interface.
All workloads displayed in the Web Interface Workloads list are supported for migration using the Web Interface. See Table 20-1.
Migrate Client: The Workloads list includes all discovered source workloads, no matter where you initiated discovery.
Some workloads in the Migrate Client Workloads list might not be supported as migration targets using the Migrate Client. See Table 20-1.
In addition, the Mass Discover CLI enables you to discover multiple workloads from a CSV file. The related migration jobs start according to the schedules you set for them.
