Hyper-V Live MigrationTechnology in Windows Server 2008 R2 that allows you to move running VMs from one physical server to another physical server without disruption of service or perceived downtimeLive Migration Process
1. Initiated via in-box cluster UI, SCVMM, PowerShell2. VM State/Memory Transfer
a) Create VM on the targetb) Move memory pages from the source to the target via Ethernet
3. Final state transfer and virtual machine restorea) Pause virtual machineb) Move storage connectivity from source host to target host via Ethernet
4. Un-pause & Run
