Adding a Stage or Step

You can customize a migration workflow to fit your requirements better by adding stages or steps to the workflow.

  • You can only add a stage before or after an existing stage when the existing stage is in Waiting or Paused state. This is true for step additions.
  • If the previous stage is in Running, Paused, or Complete state, you can only add a stage after the existing stage. This is also true for step additions.
  • You cannot add steps after repeatable steps.

Adding a Stage

  1. On the migration workflow details page, move the cursor to the migration stage before or after which you want to add a stage. In the displayed window, choose Add Stage Before or Add Stage After.
  2. Enter a stage name and description, click Add Step, select a step type, enter a step name and description, and click Confirm. Multiple steps can be added.
  3. Click Confirm.

    Manually added stages can be modified or deleted, but pre-defined stages cannot.
