# Moving Workloads Between Hosts

To manually move workloads between hosts, drill into the detail page for the VM (from the VMs tab of the cluster detail page). Click ACTIONS and select “Manage Placement”. Choose a different host and select from the following placement strategies:

- **Auto:** Manages VM placement based on load
- **Failover:** Moves VMs only when failover is necessary
- **Pinned:** Will not move this workload from the selected host

Within a short time, the workload is moved to the new host.
