Why Can't I Save the Migration Configuration as a Template?

Symptom

After you completed the migration configuration, you clicked Save as Template to save the configuration as a template for future use, but the message "Failed to save the configuration" was displayed.

Possible Causes

The image used to create the target server is a private image and has been deleted. SMS cannot identify the information about this private image. As a result, the migration configuration fails to be saved as a template.

Solution

Go to the ECS console and reinstall or change the OS of the target server.

If you want to change the firmware type of the target server from BIOS to UEFI, create a private image by following the instructions provided in How Do I Resolve Error "Inconsistent firmware type. Source: UEFI, Target: BIOS" When I Create a Migration Task?
