How Do I Select a Target Server?

Source servers can be migrated to pay-per-use or yearly/monthly ECSs. You can select whichever billing mode that best suits your needs.

A target server must meet the requirements described here. If no existing ECSs meet these requirements, you can create one. For details, see "How Do I Create an ECS?" in Elastic Cloud Server User Guide.
  • A target server running Windows must have at least 2 GB of memory.
  • A target server must have at least as many disks as the source server, and each disk on the target server must be at least as large as the paired source disk.
  • A target server must run the same type of OS as the source server. Otherwise, OS inconsistency will occur.
