You will be asked whether you wish to run a scan over the entire source platform or a specific location. We recommend scanning the *entire source* for cloud platforms and selecting the *specific drive* you wish to scan if you're working with on-prem servers.

Finally, you can click **Launch Scan** to kick off your pre-migration scan. &#x20;
