Goal

Today MTV can already migrate (warm, cold) VMs from OpenShift to another OpenShift.

In future - with this epic done - MTV can also live migrate a VM from OCP to OCP, Live migration as in the intra cluster node to node live-migration.

User Stories

• As a cluster administrator, I want MTV to live migate a VM from OCP to OCP, so that the VM will never be down.

Non-Requirements

• MTV will not do the live migration itself, MTV is only a) creating and mapping resources from src to dst and b) kicking of the live migration between the two clusters. CNV is then doing the live migration

What is the main user goal aka job to be done?

• As a System Administrator, I want to successfully implement live migration using the OpenShift Provider in the Migration Toolkit for Virtualization so that I can ensure minimal downtime and maintain high availability of applications during migration processes.
• As a DevOps Engineer, I want to understand the best practices for configuring live migration so that I can optimize resource utilization and improve the performance of my virtualized environment.
• As an IT manager, I want to evaluate the benefits and challenges of live migration with the MTV so that I can make informed decisions about adopting this technology for my organization.
• As a Technical Support Specialist, I want to access troubleshooting guides and common issues related to live migration so that I can quickly resolve problems and assist users effectively.
• As a Cloud Architect, I want to explore advanced features of the Migration Toolkit for Virtualization so that I can design scalable and resilient cloud solutions that leverage live migration capabilities.
