    Rename

    Complete the following steps to rename a migration zone:

    1. Click Rename.

    2. In the Rename Migration Zone dialog, enter a new name.

      Note

      The name must be unique across all migration zones in your ThinkAgile CP environment.

    3. Click Update.

    Add nodes

    Complete the following steps to add one or more compute nodes to the migration zone:
    1. Click Add nodes.
    2. Select the nodes that you want to add to the migration zone.
    3. Click Add Nodes.
    Note

    Because a node can only belong to one migration zone, ThinkAgile CP only displays a list of unassigned nodes. If you want to add a node that is currently assigned to another migration zone, move the node to another migration zone. For more information, see the following topic:

    Delete migration zone

    Complete the following steps to delete a migration zone:
    1. Click Delete migration zone.
    2. In the Delete Migration Zone dialog, click Delete migration zone.
    Note
    Before deleting a migration zone, make sure that there are no application instances using the migration zone. For each application instance, shut down the instance and change to another migration zone.
