DESCRIPTION

The startmigration command starts or restarts a prepared migration to go through data transfer phase of migration. Historic data from source volumes is moved to destination volume over peer port. Once the data transfer is complete, export to the source host will be executed if the data migration type is MDM. At the source storage system, the presentation of the source volume to the source host will be removed. If possible, the source volume will be locked but not deleted.

The host representing the destination storage system that was created during the migration preparation stage will remain at the source storage system. For another migration, this host will be reused. When you are finished with all the migration related to the host, you may choose to delete this host.
