Modifies the parameters of a migration task.

Usage notes

Before you modify the parameters of a migration task, take note of the following information:

  • The Name and Description parameters can be modified during the lifecycle of the migration task.
  • The Frequency and MaxNumberOfImageToKeep parameters can be modified only before the migration task is performed or when the migration task is in the Waiting state.
  • Other parameters can be modified only before the migration task is performed.

Request parameters

Parameter Type Required Example Description
Action String No ModifyReplicationJobAttribute

The operation that you want to perform. Set the value to ModifyReplicationJobAttribute.

JobId String No j-bp19vlwm0tyigbmj****

The ID of the migration task.

Name String No testMigrationTaskName

The name of the migration task. The name must meet the following requirements:

  • The name must be unique.
  • The name must be 2 to 128 characters in length and can contain letters, digits, colons (:), underscores (_), and hyphens (-). It must start with a letter but cannot start with http:// or https://.

The description must be 2 to 128 characters in length and can contain letters, digits, colons (:), underscores (_), and hyphens (-). It must start with a letter but cannot start with http:// or https://.

TargetType String No Image

The type of destination to which the source server is migrated. You can modify the value only before the migration task starts. Valid values:

  • Image: After the migration task is complete, Server Migration Center (SMC) generates a destination Elastic Compute Service (ECS) image for the source server. You can use the image to create an ECS instance.
  • ContainerImage: After the migration task is complete, SMC generates a container image for the source server. You can use the container image in Container Registry.
  • TargetInstance: After the migration task is complete, SMC migrates the source server to the destination instance. If you set this parameter to TargetInstance, you must set the InstanceId parameter.
Note
  • The value of this parameter is not case-sensitive.
  • SMC does not allow you to migrate Windows servers or servers that run operating systems on the ARM architecture to Container Registry.
ScheduledStartTime String No 2019-06-04T13:35:00Z

The time when the migration task is performed. SMC starts the migration task at the specified time.

Specify the time in the ISO 8601 standard in the YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ format. The time must be in UTC. For example, 2018-01-01T12:00:00Z specifies 20:00:00 on January 1, 2018 (UTC+8).

Note If you do not specify this parameter, SMC does not automatically start the migration task. You must call the StartReplicationJob operation to start the task.
ImageName String No testAliCloudImageName

The name of the destination image. The name must meet the following requirements:

  • The name must be unique within an Alibaba Cloud region.
  • The name must be 2 to 128 characters in length and can contain letters, digits, colons (:), underscores (_), and hyphens (-). It must start with a letter but cannot start with http:// or https://.
Note If the specified image name already exists in the region in which the migration task is running, the migration task ID is appended to the image name as a suffix. Example: ImageName-JobId.
InstanceId String No i-bp1f1dvfto1sigz5****

The ID of the destination ECS instance.

SystemDiskSize Integer No 50

The system disk size of the destination ECS instance. Unit: GiB. Valid values: 20 to 500.

Note The value must be greater than the used space of the system disk on the source server. For example, if the source system disk has 500 GiB of storage space and 100 GiB of data, you must set this parameter to a value greater than 100 GiB.
Frequency Integer No 10

The interval at which an incremental migration task runs. Unit: hours. Valid values: 1 to 168.

This parameter is required if you set the RunOnce parameter to false.

MaxNumberOfImageToKeep Integer No 5

The maximum number of images that are retained for an incremental migration task. Valid values: 1 to 10.

This parameter is required if you set the RunOnce parameter to false.

InstanceType String No ecs.c5.large

The type of the intermediate instance.

You can call the DescribeInstanceTypes operation to query the instance types that are provided by ECS.

  • If you specify this parameter, SMC creates an intermediate instance of the specified type. If the specified instance type is unavailable, the migration task fails to be created.
  • If you do not specify this parameter, SMC selects an available instance type in a specific order to create an intermediate instance. For more information about available intermediate instance types, see SMC FAQ.
LaunchTemplateId String No lt-bp16jovvln1cgaaq****

The ID of the launch template.

LaunchTemplateVersion String No Latest

The version number of the launch template.

ContainerRepository String No testRepository

The repository that stores the destination Docker container image. For more information about Docker container images, see Terms.

ContainerTag String No CentOS:v1

The tag of the destination Docker container image. For more information about Docker container images, see Terms.

ValidTime String No 2019-06-04T13:35:00Z

The time when the migration task expires. You can schedule the migration task to expire 7 to 90 days after the task is created.

  • This parameter can be modified only when the migration task is in the Ready, Running, Stopped, InError, or Waiting state.
  • Specify the time in the ISO 8601 standard in the YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ format. The time must be in UTC. For example, 2018-01-01T12:00:00Z specifies 20:00:00 on January 1, 2018 (UTC+8).
  • If you do not set this parameter, the migration task does not expire.
  • When a migration task expires, the task state changes to Expired. SMC retains the migration task for seven days after the task expires. After the retention period, SMC deletes the migration task.

By default, a migration task is valid for 30 days after it is created.

SystemDiskPart.N.SizeBytes Long No 254803968

The size of partition N in the destination system disk. Unit: bytes. The default value is equal to the partition size of the source system disk.

Note The total size of all partitions in the destination system disk cannot exceed the size of the destination system disk.

Specifies whether to enable block replication for partition N in the destination system disk. Valid values:

  • true
  • false
SystemDiskPart.N.Device String No 0_1

The device ID of partition N in the destination system disk.

Note The partitions in the destination system disk are arranged in the same sequential order as those in the source system disk.
DataDisk.N.Index Integer No 1

The index of data disk N on the destination ECS instance. Valid values: 1 to 16.

Data disks on a destination ECS instance are arranged in a sequential order that starts from 1.

Note To create a destination data disk for a source server, make sure that the source server has data disks.
DataDisk.N.Part.N.SizeBytes Long No 254803968

The size of partition N in the destination data disk. Unit: bytes. The default value is equal to the partition size of the source data disk.

Note The total size of all partitions in the destination data disk cannot exceed the size of the destination data disk.
DataDisk.N.Part.N.Block Boolean No true

Specifies whether to enable block replication for partition N in the destination data disk. Valid values:

  • true
  • false
DataDisk.N.Part.N.Device String No 0_1

The device ID of partition N in the destination data disk.

Note The partitions in the destination data disk are arranged in the same sequential order as those in the source data disk.
DataDisk.N.Size Integer No 100

The data disk size of the destination ECS instance. Unit: GiB. Valid values: 20 to 32768.

Note The size of a destination data disk must be greater than the size of data in the source data disk. For example, if the source data disk has 500 GiB of storage space and 100 GiB of data, you must set this parameter to a value greater than 100 GiB.
