Migration parallel jobs

[Tipenso]

Hello all.

Is there a way to change the default 'Parallel jobs' value during a bulk migration, from 1 to x?
Thanks in advance.

Hi @Tipenso ,
If you are talking about GUI, you'd need to modify PVE code to get the default value changed. Going forward, you'd need to keep that modification in place through PVE upgrades.

It would be interesting in future versions, to be able to vary that default value in the migration options.
I had thought about the 'max_workers' value, but I read somewhere that the GUI option 'Parallel jobs' has a higher priority.

Thank you.

Sorry, I forgot about the max_workers. That is one way to control concurrency. You are correct that the entry in GUI box overwrites the max_workers.
