Which of these statements is/are incorrect?

Group of answer choices
a. P2P is the type of migration most likely to be encountered.
b. P2V migration moves all data on the physical server to a VM running on top of a hypervisor.
c. V2V migration is a straightforward process of moving a VM from one cloud provider to another.
d. In offline migration, the server is stored (or cloned) on physical media and shipped to the cloud provider.

Final answer:

The incorrect statements are option a, because P2P migration is less common with the prevalence of virtualization, and option c, since V2V migration can be complex due to various factors involving compatibility and configuration across different cloud providers.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student is asking about the incorrect statements related to various types of server migrations in a computing environment. Here are the clarifications:

  • a. P2P migration (Physical to Physical) is not commonly encountered because it implies moving from one physical server to another, which is a less typical scenario with the rise of virtualization technologies.
  • b. P2V migration (Physical to Virtual) correctly moves all data from a physical server to a VM (Virtual Machine) on top of a hypervisor.
  • c. V2V migration (Virtual to Virtual) can be complex and is not necessarily a straightforward process, as it involves not only moving a VM but also ensuring compatibility and configuration within the new cloud provider's environment.
  • d. Offline migration can involve storing or cloning data on physical media to be shipped, but this is not the only method, as there are also network-based offline migration options.

With this information, the incorrect statements are a and c. a because P2P is indeed not the most likely type of migration to be encountered, and c because V2V migrations can be complicated and far from straightforward depending on the involved cloud providers and technologies.
