We are happy to announce the release of xmigrate beta_v0.3.0. This release is now available for all the Cloud and DevOps engineers to try out.

Also please note that we are still in beta and if you wish to migrate your production workloads then please take a full backup and create a new server out of it. Then try to migrate that server.

Removing public mongodb dependency

We needed a public/private mongodb for updating metadata and disk cloning status directly from the source server to the database. We are now changing this approach by passing a call back URL to the source server. The source server then use the call back URL to update the status and source server metadata.

UIUX Enhancement

We improved a lot with respect to UI and UX in this release,

  • Fixed some of the UX glitches like user being able to press clone, convert, build buttons from the console even they have pressed that button already.
  • We are now showing a loader while an action(clone, convert, build) is progressing
  • Added toasts when an action is completed for a server
  • Re-enable the action button when it fails. For eg, convert button will get enabled when disk conversion fails

Support for more OS

We added support for Ubuntu 18.04, CentOS7, CentOS8 and Red hat 7 in this release. Now the OS compatibility matrix looks like this,
