Data Migration
This section explains the function that migrates data from an old storage system to the ETERNUS DX.
4.3.1
Storage Migration
Storage Migration is a function that migrates the volume data from an old storage system to volumes in a
new storage system without using a host in cases such as when replacing a storage system.
The migration source storage system and migration destination ETERNUS DX are connected using FC cables.
Data read from the target volume in the migration source is written to the migration destination volume in
the ETERNUS DX.
Since Storage Migration is controlled by ETERNUS DX controllers, no additional software is required.
