      Is there a way to move numerous VMs to another SR?
      Background: Test Xen instance with one host in the pool. Multiple NAS backends being used for SRs. I need to update one of the Nas systems. I can go into each VM configuration and move it to another configured SR but how do i do this enmasse?

        Hi,

        It's not complicated. Before creating a thread, I suggest to explore a bit the XO interface, you might discover cool things 🙂

        In your case, go in any SR view, you can select multiple VDIs and migrate them wherever you want.

        Note: if you want to make those kind of migration, removing snapshots is a good idea. This way, they won't have to be migrated, which can double or triple the migration time.

          @olivierlambert Hey Oliver...You're right. Im usually a lot better than this when it comes to forums. I search but i was in a bit of a time crunch and multiple people wanting me to move the VDIs.
          I appreciate your quick feedback none the less and sorry for the forum spam 🙂
