Read Original

This article provides a solution for migrating vSphere encrypted virtual machines between different vCenter servers, a process not natively supported via live vMotion. It explains the encryption key pairing challenge and outlines a step-by-step method using incremental backups (specifically with Commvault) to transfer VMs while preserving their encrypted state and minimizing downtime, offering a practical workaround for IT administrators.
