Abstract
Examples described herein may include migration of data associated with a service to a container. An example method includes creating of a user virtual machine associated with a service and an associated virtual disk storing data associated with running the service, and creating a volume group and an associated storage container at a node of a computing system. The example method further includes storing a cloned version of the virtual disk into the storage container, and, in response to discovery of the cloned version of the virtual disk in the storage container, mounting the cloned version of the virtual disk on the volume group to provide access to clients running the service.
