Migration Process
The migration process may take up to two hours to complete depending on
the size of the disks being used and the strip size selected. A dialog window will
appear stating that the migration process may take considerable time to complete and
you must click
Yes
in order to start the migration. While you can still continue using
your computer during the migration process, once the migration process starts, it
cannot be stopped. If the migration process gets interrupted and your system is
rebooted for any reason, it will pick up the migration process where it left off. You will
be provided with an estimated completion time (the remaining time will depend on your
system) once the migration process starts as illustrated in the following example:
The following screen appears if the migration process is completed
successfully. Then you have to reboot your system to use the full capacity of the
new volume.
