Migrating segments
Segment migration transfers segment ownership but it does not move segments from their physical
locations in the storage system. Segment ownership is recorded on the physical segment itself, and
the ownership data is part of the metadata that the Fusion Manager distributes to file serving nodes
and StoreAll clients so that they can locate segments.
To migrate segments on the GUI, select the file system on the Filesystems panel, select
Segments
from the lower Navigator, and then click
Ownership/Migration
on the Segments panel to open
the Segment Ownership Migration Wizard.
The Change Ownership dialog box reports the status of the servers in the cluster and lists the
segments owned by each server. In the Segment Properties section of the dialog box, select the
segment whose ownership you are transferring, and click
Change Owner
.
