After the specifications of target resources are confirmed, you can directly purchase these target resources in batches using a shopping list on MgC. Currently, only servers can be purchased this way. The purchased target servers will be automatically associated with the paired source servers. You can then manually redeploy your services on these target servers. Alternatively, you can create server migration workflows from the beginning to automate the entire purchase and service migration process.

Prerequisites

You have got target recommendations.

Procedure

Sign in to the MgC console.
In the navigation pane on the left, choose Design > Migration Solutions. Select a migration project in the upper left corner of the page.
Click View in the Target Configuration card.
In the Target Configurations area, under Server, select a server whose Assessment Status is Success, and click Add to Shopping List in the Purchase Status column.
