How Do I Optimize a Windows Target Server After the Migration Is Complete?

Scenarios

After the migration is complete, you need to manually install drivers on the target server to solve compatibility issues.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the management console.
  2. Under Compute, click Elastic Cloud Server.
  3. In the ECS list, view the flavor of the target ECS.

    ECS flavors are named in the "AB.C.D" format, for example, m2.8xlarge.8.

    A specifies the ECS type. B specifies the type ID. C specifies the flavor size. D specifies the ratio of memory to vCPUs expressed in a digit.
    • If B of the target ECS is 1, for example, s1.small.2, the ECS uses Xen virtualization, and you will need to install the PV driver.
    • If B of your target ECS is not 1, for example, s2.small.3, the ECS uses KVM virtualization, and you will need to install UVP VMTools.
  4. Check whether there is a PV driver or UVP VMTools software package on the target ECS based on the virtualization type queried in 3.
    • If there is, go to 7.
    • If there is not, go to 6.
  5. Download the PV driver or UVP VMTools software package to the source server based on the virtualization type queried in 3. For more information, see Obtaining Required Software Packages in "Optimizing a Windows Private Image (Windows)" of Image Management Service User Guide.
  6. Synchronize the PV driver or UVP VMTools software package from the source server to the target ECS, and then go to 7.
  7. Install the required driver on the target ECS.
