Explanation:
One of the great new features coming in Windows Server 2012 is Storage Migration for Hyper-V. Storage
Migration allows an administrator to relocate the source files that make up a virtual machine to another location
without any downtime.
Storage Migration creates a copy of the file or files at the new location. Once that is finished, Server 2012 does
a final replication of changes and then the virtual machine uses the files in the new location.
