Reference documentation and code samples for the Migration Center v1 API enum SizingOptimizationStrategy.
The sizing optimization strategy preferences of a virtual machine. This
strategy, in addition to actual usage data of the virtual machine, can help
determine the recommended shape on the target platform.
Virtual machine sizing will match the reported usage, with little slack.
Using this option can help reduce costs.
Moderate
Virtual machine sizing will match the reported usage and shape, with some
slack. This a good value to start with.
SameAsSource
No optimization applied. Virtual machine sizing matches as closely as
possible the machine shape on the source site, not considering any actual
performance data.
