Migration Requirements for Physical I/O Devices

Except for SR-IOV Ethernet virtual functions, domains that have direct access to physical devices cannot be migrated. However, virtual devices that are associated with physical devices can be migrated.

For information, see Migrating a Domain That Has an SR-IOV Ethernet Virtual Function Assigned.

You cannot perform a domain migration on an I/O domain that is configured with PCIe endpoint devices.

For information about the direct I/O feature, see Creating an I/O Domain by Assigning PCIe Endpoint Devices.

You cannot perform a domain migration on an I/O domain that is configured with PCIe SR-IOV Fibre Channel and InfiniBand virtual functions.

For information about the SR-IOV feature, see Creating an I/O Domain by Using PCIe SR-IOV Virtual Functions.
