Vinchin can easily migrate XenServer virtual machines (supporting Citrix XenServer 6.x, Citrix XenServer 7.x, Citrix XenSever 8 and Citrix Hypervisor 8.0, 8.1, 8.2, 8.2.1, 8.3.) to various Oracle Linux Virtualization Manager versions, including Oracle Linux Virtualization Manager 4.3.x, 4.4.x, and 4.5.x.
In addition to its powerful backup and recovery capabilities, Vinchin offers seamless cross-platform migration in just a few simple steps, ensuring both data integrity and business continuity. Whether you're looking to strengthen your disaster recovery strategy or optimize your virtualized architecture, Vinchin provides a stable and reliable solution to help you efficiently complete the migration process.
Before you restore the VM to OLVM, you need to have a XenServer VM backup created by Vinchin Backup & Recovery.
Let's open a browser and log in Vinchin Backup server web console. Go to VM Backup > Restore page.
Step 1. Select Restore Point
In the list, you can see all the available restore points. Just select the XenServer restore point you want to restore, and click Next.
Step 2. Select Restore Destination
Here select the specific OLVM host and you can simply configure the new VM here, such as VM name, CPU, Memory, Virtual Disk and Virtual Network. After configuration, click Next.
Step 3. Configure Restore Strategies
In Schedule, you can choose Restore as Scheduled or Once-off Restore. Restore as scheduled will automatically restore the VMs at a specific time, and Once-off Restore will restore the VMs only once.
After configuring all recovery policies, click Next.
Step 4. Review and submit the job
Once the job is created, you'll be redirected to the job list page and the restore job will run now.
Click the job name to check the job progress. And the flow chart shows the real-time transmission speed and the bar under it is the job progress.
Here, you can see the VM has been successfully restored.
To make sure that everything went well, it’s better to check the new virtual machine in Oracle Linux Virtualization Manager again. Here you can confirm that the migration from XenServer to OLVM has been successfully completed.
