You can use a PowerShell script to automatically prepare VMs for conversion to Google Cloud Platform (GCP). This script installs GCP drivers on Windows VMware virtual machines.
Before You Begin
- Ensure that the Windows VMware VM has PowerShell installed, and that you have administrator privileges.
Procedure
-
Download the CVInstallGCPDrivers.ps1 script from the Commvault Store.
-
Run the following script:
\CVInstallGCPDrivers.ps1 "C:\CVDrivers"
-
Copy the folder C:\CVDrivers to the source VM.
-
Run the following script:
PS \CVInstallGCPDrivers.ps1 "C:\CVDrivers" install - Install drivers from the location "C:\CVDrivers"
-
Run a full backup of the Windows VMWare VMs.
-
Perform a full replication on the GCP target.
-
Run a planned failover and then verify that the destination VM boots up.
