Part 54: HOW TO: Migrate physical, virtual and cloud based workloads with real-time replication to VMware vSphere (ESXi) or Microsoft Hyper-V using OpenText Migrate

Monday, November 25th, 2024

In this video presentation which is part of the Hancock’s VMware Half Hour I will show you HOW TO: Migrate physical, virtual and cloud based workloads with real-time replication to VMware vSphere (ESXi) or Microsoft Hyper-V using OpenText Migrate.

Ten years ago I wrote the following article about the product Double-Take MOVE by Vision Solutions. It’s been acquired in the last ten years, by Carbonite, and now is in the hand of OpenText, and is name going forward will be OpenText Migrate.

HOW TO: Migrate physical, virtual and cloud based workloads with real-time replication to VMware vSphere (ESXi) using Double-Take MOVE

In these uncertain times, when you may be required to migrate workloads between platforms, such as VMware vSphere, Microsoft Hyper-V etc I can highly recommend OpenText Migrate. as one of the best products on the market for your Migration Project.

In this video I will demonstrate the migration of an Linux Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Server from Microsoft Hyper-V to VMware vSphere, and concurrently migrate a Microsoft Windows 2022 Server from VMware vSphere to Microsoft Hyper-V, with very little downtime.

Part 50. HOW TO: Deploy and Configure Zerto to migrate workloads between Cloud and On-Prem VMware vSphere infrastructure with limited downtime

Saturday, October 19th, 2024

In this video presentation which is part of the Hancock’s VMware Half Hour HOW TO Video Series I will show you HOW TO: Deploy and Configure Zerto to migrate workloads between Cloud and On-Prem VMware vSphere infrastructure with limited downtime.

Zerto is a commercial application which offers continuous data protection. It’s available as a trail and download here

Zero trial and download

It offers far better data protection than VMware Converter which has been discussed in this video, it does not have any issues in synchronising and replicating workloads based on UEFI Secure Boot Windows Servers.

HOW TO: Synchronize changes when completing a P2V or V2V with VMware vCenter Converter Standalone 6.4

VMware vCenter Converter 6.4.0 Standalone download

This video is based on an article I wrote for Experts Exchange over 10 years ago. So join me for hints and tips of how we create a P2V migration to VMware vSphere. In this video I will show you how we can make changes on the source, and these will be replicated to the destination virtual machine, using the Synchronize option, later we will “cutover” workloads from the source to destination, with limited impact on service.

cloudHQ – Backup and sync data between Cloud Storage providers

Thursday, September 12th, 2013

Do you find yourself with half a dozen cloud storage providers?

I’ve currently got storage accounts with

  • Dropbox, Wuala, Box, Google Drive, Microsoft Skydrive and Evernote

I needed to get some files onto my Microsoft Surface RT tablet yesterday, unfortunately there seems to be an issue with Dropbox with the Surface RT and syncing to the cloud, the Surface RT uses Skydrive.

But how do I get my data from Dropbox to Skydrive?

Use cloudHQ, this cloud based application will continuously sync all your files between different cloud services: in real-time

Start a FREE Trial here

It took me five minutes to complete the easy drag and drop configuration to sync files and data between Dropbox and Microsoft Skydrive!

You can also Backup all your emails from Gmail to Dropbox!

Brilliant use of the Cloud, Excellent Product, I also like the ability to browse current cloud storage vendors using the cloudHQ website!
