Migrating Containers to Virtual Machines

The pmigrate utility allows you to migrate Containers to virtual machines. The source server, i.e. the server where the Container resides before its migration, can be one of the following:

• a local server running Parallels Cloud Server
• a remote server running Parallels Cloud Server
• a remote server running Parallels Virtuozzo Containers

Currently, the destination server, i.e. the server where the resulting virtual machine will be created, can be only a local server with Parallels Cloud Server.

The process of migrating a Container to a virtual machine differs depending on whether the server where the Container resides is running the Parallels Cloud Server or Parallels Virtuozzo Containers software.
