PTC applications are deployed on VMs. The objective of the test is to evaluate PTC VM live migration if an ESXi node shuts down due to hardware or other failures. - Initiate a hard boot of an ESXi server while PTC applications are functioning. See ESXi node powered down for setup details.
- On the vSphere client, observe the state of the VMs supported by that ESXi server.
- Monitor edge data aggregation on PTC ThingWorx and Kepware Server throughout the process.
- When the ESXi node is shut down, VxRail with VMware vMotion migrates the VMs to another available node.
- PTC applications continue to run, and data aggregation is not impacted.
