Track vps migrations

[asarubbo]

Hello, I'm new to vultr and vultr-cli. Is there a way to display if an instance is under migration?

Hello @asarubbo and welcome to Vultr! Will you clarify what you mean by an instance under migration?

[asarubbo]

I mean a vps moved from a physical host to another.

I'm an long time hetzner-cloud user and for example when you run hcloud server list in the normal condition you will see running under the STATUS column, while in the migration time you will see migrating under the STATUS column.

Ah, I understand you now. I don't think the API exposes that detail but I'll inquire.

[optik-aper]

It looks like these are the current possible status values from the API for an instance:

status: active, pending, suspended, resizing
power_status:  running, stopped
server_status: none, locked, installingbooting, ok

It doesn't look like we expose migrating status.

[asarubbo]

Can I request to expose the migration status? If yes where is the correct place?

[optik-aper]

Certainly! The best place would probably be to open a support ticket at https://my.vultr.com/support/

done, thanks :)
