CV0-003 · Question #98

A company has decided to replace hypervisors to reduce licensing costs. An administrator has been tasked with migrating VMs to the new hypervisor. Which of the following migration types will be used?

The correct answer is B. V2V. Moving virtual machines from one hypervisor to another is a Virtual-to-Virtual (V2V) migration because both the source and destination environments are virtualized.

Why each option

Moving virtual machines from one hypervisor to another is a Virtual-to-Virtual (V2V) migration because both the source and destination environments are virtualized.

AP2P

P2P (Physical-to-Physical) migration moves workloads between two physical servers and does not involve virtualization at either the source or destination.

BV2VCorrect

V2V (Virtual-to-Virtual) migration converts and transfers a VM from one hypervisor platform to a different hypervisor, which is exactly what is required when replacing a licensed hypervisor product with a lower-cost alternative while preserving existing workloads and their configurations.

CV2P

V2P (Virtual-to-Physical) migration converts a virtual machine into a workload running directly on physical hardware, which is the reverse of the goal described.

DP2V

P2V (Physical-to-Virtual) migration converts a physical server into a virtual machine and is used when first virtualizing an environment, not when changing between hypervisor platforms.
