Why each option
Moving a virtual machine from the cloud to a physical on-premises server is a Virtual-to-Physical (V2P) migration. This is the reverse of the more common P2V process.
P2P (Physical to Physical) refers to migrating a workload from one physical machine to another, which does not apply here since the source is a virtual machine.
V2P (Virtual to Physical) is the correct process for migrating a workload that currently runs as a virtual machine and needs to be converted to run directly on physical hardware. In this scenario, the cloud-hosted virtual database server must be extracted from its virtualized environment and deployed onto the new blade server as a physical installation, which is exactly what V2P migration tools accomplish.
P2V (Physical to Virtual) is the opposite process - converting a physical machine into a virtual machine - which is the reverse of what is needed.
V2V (Virtual to Virtual) migrates a virtual machine from one hypervisor or cloud environment to another virtual environment, not to physical hardware.
