    Elastic Desktop Service:Migrate cloud computers across office networks

    Last Updated:Jun 19, 2024

    When you use a cloud computer, the office network (formerly workspace) in which the cloud computer resides may fail to meet your business requirements. For example, the office network is not attached to an Apsara File Storage NAS (NAS) file system, or you want to change the connection type or the logon settings. In this case, you can migrate the cloud computer to another office network. This topic describes how to migrate a cloud computer from its source office network to a destination office network.

    Background information

    Applicable scope

    You can migrate cloud computers only across convenience office networks.

    Impacts

    • After cloud computers are migrated to the destination office network, the assignment of cloud computers to users and data on cloud computers remain unchanged.

    • The system sends emails that contain the destination office network IDs to convenience users after migration. When end users use the new office network IDs to log on to Alibaba Cloud Workspace terminals, the logon settings, such as multi-factor authentication (MFA), single sign-on (SSO), and connection type are determined by destination office networks.

    • If you migrate a Linux cloud computer, we recommend that you restart it after migration.

      Note

      When you migrate a Linux cloud computer, the cloud computer may be disconnected from the network. However, this issue does not occur when you migrate a Windows cloud computer.

    Prerequisites

    • The cloud computers that you want to migrate are in the Stopped or Running state.

    • Source and destination office networks must be in the same region.

    • Source and destination office networks must be of the convenience account type.

    Procedure

    1. Log on to the Elastic Desktop Service console.

    2. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Resources & Terminals > Cloud Computers.

    3. In the upper-left corner of the top navigation bar, select a region.

    4. On the Cloud Computers page, perform one of the following operations:

      • Single cloud computer: Find the cloud computer that you want to migrate, click the ⋮ icon in the Actions column, and then click Migrate Office Network.

      • Multiple cloud computers: Find the cloud computers that you want to migrate and choose More > Migrate Office Network.

        Note

        When you migrate multiple cloud computers, make sure that they reside in the same office network.

    5. In the Migrate Office Network dialog box, select a destination office network from the Destination Office Network drop-down list and click Confirm.
