So when the 1st task "Copy data from source vCenter Server to target vCenter Server" is complete, the Migration Assistant has done it's job and shuts down with the source vCenter Server?
=> you have to complete Stage 1 and 2 to exit the Migration Assistant (if it doesn't exit itself), take a look at those screenshots : Migration vCenter Windows vers PSC 6.5 | VroomBlog
The installer then carries on with task 2 "Setup target vCenter Server and start services and then task 3 Import copied data to target vCenter Server.
=> yes
Essentially the source is no longer needed as the target has all of the information it needs. Presumably from the Migration Assistant, which can now shut down.
=> no is no longer needed but i advise you to keep it in backup for weeks if you encounter a big issue or if you need to restore it for any reason..
In any cases, if you can access to the VCSA web client it means the deployment is over, so you can close the migration assistant if it's not already.
