the Windows virtual machine host.

Booting the destination server for P2P, V2P, and
X2V (COS-less) migrations
If you are performing a P2P, V2P, or X2V (COS-less) migration, you must boot the destination server
using the applicable SMP Universal Boot CD. To boot the destination server for physical servers, you
must be able to reboot the server and load a CD, either manually or through iLO. For virtual servers,
you must have access to the virtual machine host management console.
The SMP Universal Boot CD can only boot supported destination servers with supported primary
storage controllers. For a list of supported servers and storage controllers, see the HP Server Migration
Pack – Universal Edition Support Matrix.
To manually or automatically boot the destination server or virtual machine to proper SMP Boot CD,
see the following procedures. After the destination system is booted, you must configure it to launch
the destination agent.
