During a top-of-rack switch replacement, GIS mapping VMs must move to another ESXi host with zero guest downtime while their disks stay on the same datastore. Which vSphere feature does that?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
vMotion is moving the running GIS guest to another host while the disks stay put—like moving a meeting to another room without hanging up. Storage vMotion would move the disks. Geneve and bridging are NSX packet features, not live compute migration.
Full Explanation
vSphere vMotion live-migrates a running virtual machine's memory and execution state to another host while storage remains on the current datastore. Storage vMotion is the feature that relocates virtual disks. Geneve is NSX-T overlay encapsulation, and NSX bridging extends a segment to a VLAN; neither feature is the vSphere live-migration of a guest between hosts.
