VMware Aria Automation 8 includes these endpoint considerations.

The migration service only assesses endpoints if there are active reseervations attached to it. If you want to exclude an endpoint from assesment/migration, you can disable or delete any reservations that are attached to it. Furthermore, any workloads (VMs) that are associated with an obsolete endpoint are flagged as 'not ready' during assessment and they are excluded from migration.
