Migrate VPS

Use the Migrate VPS API to migrate the VPS(s) present on master server to your slave server. You can select the storage disk on which migration of the VPS will take place, for migration single VPS.

For migration of multiple VPSes do not pass the storage ID of the destination server as virtualizor automatically chooses the storage disk on which the migration will take place.

The API response will contain "actid" which can be used to monitor the migration process at admin panel or using the Task API.

It is recommended that you save the VPS data before starting this process as Virtualizor will power off the VPS to do the transfer.

For more information, you can refer this GUI Migration Guide.
