Finding Primary Storage for Migration
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When you click on migrate volume, CloudStack lists the available primary storage. CloudStack uses its storage pool allocators to identify the primary storages that are available and returns a list that is suitable for the selected volume's migration.
The list also could include primary storages that are mentioned as 'Not suitable'. The criteria for which the primary storages are not suitable are:
- Storage tag mismatch with the volume.
- Doesn't have enough capacity.
- Reached its disable threshold
- Disabled.
Mismatch in the type of storage such as shared /Local.
