19. When the migration mirror has completed, the target may or may not reboot

automatically depending on your selection for Wait for user intervention before
cutover
. If you disabled user intervention, the target will reboot automatically to
complete the migration process. If you enabled user intervention, when the
migration mirror is complete, the status will change to Ready for Cutover. Use this
time to complete any necessary tasks. When you are ready to complete the
migration, click Cutover on the Monitor page toolbar to complete the migration
process, which will reboot the target.

Once the virtual machine has been rebooted, it will become the source server.

Note: If your source was disconnected from the network during the cutover process, the

original job that was mirroring the data will still be active on that machine. Do not
bring that machine back on the network. If you do, the original job will attempt to
begin mirroring data again which could result in data loss. While the machine is
still disconnected from the network, stop the Storage Mirroring service, delete the
file connect.sts located in the Storage Mirroring Data Migration installation
directory, and then restart the Storage Mirroring. This will delete the original job.
After the original job is deleted, you can bring the machine on the network if
desired.
