Migration is only achievable in a cluster. It is hypervisor dependant. 
Migration is used only for CAP management and HA. In order to cross the 
hypervisor barrier you need to automate the 'create template > export template 
> convirt template > import template > provision' process.

Anybody know a bit more in depth what that API call really does?  From the API 
docs it "Attempts Migration of a VM to a different host or Root volume of the 
vm to a different storage pool".

Does this mean if the VM is on XenServer and I want to move it to vShpere, it 
does VHD to OVA (VMDK?) conversion under the covers?

Just trying to understand this a bit better.

Thanks.
