Storage mode

Description

inplace

The binary image data remains in its original location.

The target MSR system must be configured to use the same external storage as the source MSR system. Refer to Configure external storage for more information.

Important

Due to its ability to handle large amounts of data, Mirantis recommends the use of inplace storage mode for most migration scenarios.

copy

The binary image data is copied from the source system to a local directory on the workstation that is running MMT. This mode allows movement from one storage location to another. It is especially useful in air-gapped environments.
