Virtual machine operations may be placing a virtual machine (moving a stopped virtual machine), migrating a virtual machine (live migration of a running virtual machine), or starting a virtual machine. It may be useful to use this command to check for any possible failures before performing any of these virtual machine operations.
The following table shows the available options for this command.
