Conditions to migrate volumes in Legacy mode

Before migrating data, perform or confirm the following:

An HP StorageWorks P9000 Tiered Storage Manager software license is registered.

Create a tier.

Determine which data to migrate and which storage systems they belong to.

The emulation type, number of blocks, and size are the same for the source and target migration
volumes. However, note the following exceptions:

1.

If the micro version of XP24000/XP20000 is 60-03-20-00/00-xx or later and if both the
migration source and the migration target volumes are THP volumes, the emulation type can
be between OPEN-V and OPEN-0V.

2.

If a volume whose emulation type is OPEN-V is a normal volume, and if the size of a migration
target volume is larger than a migration-source volume, a volume that has the same size of
the migration-source volume is re-created. The remaining capacity can be reused. If you use
the server properties, you can specify how many volumes from the largest are displayed as
migration target volumes.

The LDKC:CU:LDEV number for the volume is in the range from 00:00:00 to 00:FF:FF

You can access the volumes and they are not reserved by other programs or tasks.

The emulation type is other than OPEN-V and both the migration source and the migration target
volumes are normal or both are CVS volumes.

Neither the migration source volume nor the migration target volume is an On-Demand device.

Volumes are not intermediate volumes.

Nothing is displayed in the Migration Restrictions section of the volume detailed information area.
However, if (target) is displayed at the end of the character string, the volume can be a migration
source volume.

LUSE volume conditions

If the source volume is LUSE volume:

A migration target must be selected for each volume that constitutes the LUSE.

Target volumes must be either all internal or all external volumes.

The LUSE volume can be migrated only if the target volume is not a THP volume.

The emulation type, drive type, I/O suppression mode, cache mode, and CLPR of all migration
target volumes must be the same.
