Zero-Downtime Live VM Storage Migration in OpenNebula

Optimizing cloud infrastructure and storage is a critical responsibility for system administrators, but it often comes with trade-offs. Datastore rebalancing, hardware upgrades, and maintenance frequently force disruptive maintenance windows, while large VM transfers can strain storage networks and impact performance. But OpenNebula 7.2 changed the game.

In this webinar, we’ll take a deep dive into the new Live Storage Migration feature that allows you to seamlessly migrate VM disks between different storage backends with zero downtime.
