Can I Use SMS to Migrate Self-built Databases, Big Data Services, or Websites Deployed on a Source Server?

You are not advised to use SMS to migrate databases, big data clusters, or container clusters.

If you still want to use SMS in the above scenarios, the required migration time cannot be estimated. After the migration is complete, you need to pause the source services but do not stop the source servers or the Agent before performing the final service cutover. Otherwise, the target servers may take a long time to launch, data will be inconsistent between the source and target servers, or your services may be unable to start on the target servers.
