Non-disruptive Storage Migration
Non-disruptive Storage Migration is a function that migrates the volume data from an old storage system to vol-
umes in a new storage system without stopping a business server in cases such as when replacing a storage
system.
The connection interface between the migration source storage system (external storage system) and the mi-
gration destination storage system (local storage system) is only the FC cable. In addition, the direct connection
and switch connection topologies are supported.

*1: The number of migration target volumes that are imported to the local storage system is added to the
number of volumes in the local storage system.
Connect the external storage system to the local storage system ETERNUS DX using FC cables. After the connec-
tion is established, add multipath connections between the local storage system and the business server to pre-
pare for the data migration.
After disconnecting the multipath connection between the external storage system and the business server, use
RAID Migration to read data from the migration target volume in the external storage system and write data to
the migration destination volume in the local storage system.
