   • For a Linux server using LVM, you can choose whether to migrate physical or logical volumes and resize the paired target volumes.
   • Partition resizing is not available for Btrfs partitions on Linux.
   • In a Linux migration, the system and swap partitions are migrated by default.
   • You can choose to migrate all or none volume groups by configuring Migrate All Volume Groups.
   • If you choose to migrate none of the logical volumes in a volume group, their physical volumes will not be migrated by default.

7. After the configuration is completed, click Next: Confirm. After confirming that the configuration is correct, click OK.
