I feel like migrating Asynchronous Protection Domains might not be the best option here, but I can't recall the specifics on how it impacts downtime.

I’m a bit confused about the Nutanix Move migration plan. Does it really support live migration, or is it more for moving workloads between clusters?

I remember practicing a similar question, and I think the Recovery Plan planned failover is more about disaster recovery rather than minimizing downtime during maintenance.

Cross-Cluster Live Migration sounds like the safest bet to me. It's the most direct way to move the VMs with minimal disruption during the maintenance.
