Migrating Resources To and From Storage Logical Partitions

The resources of a storage logical partition include cache logical partitions and ports, which can be migrated to another storage logical partition as needed. This process has the following restrictions:

You can only migrate resources within the same LDKC.

The only ports that can be migrated are Target ports. Initiator ports, RCU Target ports and External ports cannot be migrated, and must remain in SLPR 0.

Mainframe parity groups cannot be migrated out of SLPR 0.

To migrate one or more resources:

1.Open the Partition Definition window, and select an SLPR in the Partition Definition tree to open the Storage Management Logical Partition window.
