Canceling a migration

You can cancel an entire migration or individual virtual machines (VMs) while a migration is in progress from the command line interface (CLI).

Canceling an entire migration

Delete the Migration CR:
```
$ {oc} delete migration <migration> -n <namespace> (1)
```
1. Specify the name of the Migration CR.

Canceling the migration of individual VMs

Add the individual VMs to the spec.cancel block of the Migration manifest:

$ cat << EOF | {oc} apply -f -
apiVersion: forklift.konveyor.io/v1beta1
kind: Migration
metadata:
  name: <migration>
  namespace: <namespace>
...
spec:
  cancel:
  - id: vm-102 (1)
  - id: vm-203
  - name: rhel8-vm
EOF

You can specify a VM by using the id key or the name key.

The value of the id key is the managed object reference, for a VMware VM, or the VM UUID, for a {rhv-short} VM.

Retrieve the Migration CR to monitor the progress of the remaining VMs:
```
$ {oc} get migration/<migration> -n <namespace> -o yaml
```
