[OpenStack][Nova] deference between live-migration and migrate

 

Hello ,all
I saw there are tow commands in nova

live-migration      Migrates a running instance to a new machine.
migrate             Migrate a server.

I know that live-migration means "live migration" of an instance.

But what is this "migrate  “ for ?       And what does "Migrate a server."
mean here :)    Does it mean "Migrates a *non-running *instance to a new
machine" here?

Thank  you!

Best regards!
