20.9 Removing (Undiscovering) Target Containers

After you complete all migration jobs for a target container, you can remove (undiscover) the target container. You might also remove a target that will not be used.

IMPORTANT:

  • If an object is listed both in the Migrate Client and the Migrate Web Interface, then you must use the Web Interface to remove the object.

  • Before you delete a target container that is in use for configured jobs, you must ensure that all the affected jobs are completed.

  • For potential clean-up of files that might have been copied during discovery on the target container, ensure that the container is up and running and that it is reachable before you attempt to remove or undiscover the target.

    NOTE:If this step cannot be attempted, the process reports a failure even though the target container is successfully removed (undiscovered) from the database and is no longer available in the Migrate Client or Migrate Web Interface.

To undiscover a workload through the Migrate Client:

  1. On the Workloads page, right-click the target and select Undiscover Target.

To remove a target through the Migrate Web Interface:

  1. On the Targets page, click Remove next to the target you want to remove from Migrate.
