6 Performing MDM Using a Windows Host

The MDM process is used when migrating a Windows host with a source EMC Storage system. The host DSM must be updated to communicate with the destination HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage system, and the host must be shut down briefly. Host I/O is interrupted only during the time it takes to reconfigure the host.

Required Information

Source storage system:

WWN of the source EMC Storage system from which LUNs are being migrated.

A list of one or more volume name(s) that are being migrated. All volumes must be in same storage group or different storage groups with identical LUN membership.

Destination storage system:
