      Description of problem:

      In OpenShift 4.19.14, with OpenShift Virtualization 4.19.6, the Option to start a "Storage Migration" is available in the UI, when Migration Toolkit for Containers is installed, BUT a MigrationController is not present in the cluster, causing end user confusion.
      
      Suggest checking to ensure that there is a "MigrationController" running in the cluster prior to making the storage migration option in the UI available.

      Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

      OpenShift 4.19.14, with OpenShift Virtualization 4.19.6

      How reproducible:

      Every Time

      Steps to Reproduce:

      1. Build OpenShift Cluster
      2. Install OpenShift Virtualization
      3. Install Migration Toolkit for Containers
      DO NOT create a MigrationController
      4. Create Virtual Machine, and start
      5. From the UI, select Virtualization->Virtual Machines
      6. Select the VM you created
      7. From the "Actions" menu, select "Migration->Storage"
      8. Walk through steps to change the storage 
      
      At this point as a user who does not understand the technology, they will question WHY is the migration not occurring.

      Actual results:

      A Storage Migration Plan is created even though the cluster cant conduct a storage migration. 

      Expected results:

      The option to create a storage migration should not be available to the end user at all if the MigrationController is not available in the cluster.
