Create a Test VM

Ensure that the migration task status is not "Cutover in Progress". Otherwise, you cannot create a test VM.

In the navigation pane, select Operations Management > Migration Task > All Tasks.
On the All Tasks page, select the target migration task, and then click Actions > Test > Create Test Virtual Machine.

In the Create Test Virtual Machine dialog, configure the following options:

Option	Description
CPU	Set the number of CPU cores for the VM.
Memory	Set the memory size for the VM.
Network	Select the distributed port group that the VM will use.
CIDR	The system retrieves the CIDR based on the selected network.
IPv4 Address	The IP address allocation method depends on the selected network configuration. If DHCP is enabled on the selected distributed port group, an IPv4 address is automatically assigned by default. You can also manually specify an IP address, and the specified IP address must be within the CIDR. If DHCP is not enabled on the selected distributed port group, you must manually specify an IP address, and the specified IP address must be within the CIDR. If IPAM is not enabled on the selected distributed port group, the CIDR parameter is not displayed. You must manually specify an IP address.
System Conversion Policy	Specify the system conversion policy to apply before the VM starts.
Data Recovery Point	Use a snapshot or copy from a specific point in time to test VM recovery.

When you configure System Conversion Policy, select one of the following options:

Option	Description
Perform System Conversion	Performs a full system conversion, including: driver replacement/injection, network adapter name and IP address configuration for the target VM, and post-script execution.
Perform System Conversion Without Loading Target Drivers	Skips driver replacement. Only configures the target VM's network adapter name and IP address, and executes post-scripts.
Skip System Conversion	No driver replacement, no network configuration (adapter name/IP address), and no post-script execution. You will need to log in to the target VM and manually perform these configurations.
