Moving IIS server

I've been tasked with migrating one of the IIS servers to a new hypervisor. What is the safest way to do this? Can I just shut down the IIS server and move it, and the other IIS servers take over, or do I need to do something else?

This depends on how your users access the platform. If they are using a load balancer that has a bunch of servers in a pool you would be fine, if they are using a direct URL to the webserver that you are moving then you would be taking an outage during your migration.

We do have HA setup for our Orion pool. But, I will take a look to see where the URL points to. Thank you!
