Escape Hyper‑V: The New Agentless Path to OpenShift Virtualization
2026-06-18 , A113 (capacity 64)

Migrating from Hyper-V to OpenShift is often a manual nightmare of custom scripts and fragile workarounds. The Migration Toolkit for Virtualization changes the game with new support that enables direct, agentless, and automated migrations into OpenShift Virtualization.

This lightning talk cuts through the noise to show you exactly how the Migration Toolkit for Virtualization now connects to Hyper-V under the hood, leveraging WinRM remoting for live VM discovery and SMB shares for disk streaming, all without installing agents or modifying the source environment. Stop scripting, start migrating.
