Conditions of volumes that can be migrated
Volume conditions allowing migration include:
•
The emulation type, number of blocks, and size are the same for the source and target migration
volumes. However, note the following exceptions:
• If the micro version of XP24000/XP20000 is 60-03-20-00/00-xx or later and if both the mi-
gration source and the migration target volumes are THP/Smart volumes, the emulation type
can be between OPEN-V and OPEN-0V.
• 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 set a value
for the property
migration.plan.candidateCapacityGroupDisplayMaxCount
in
the
migration.properties
file, you can specify how many volumes with a larger capacity
than the migration source volume to display, in addition to the volumes with the same capacity
as the migration source volume.
•
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.
•
In the Migration Source page in the Migrate Data wizard, in the Selected Volumes, volumes that
are indicated as Yes in the Migratable row can be set as a migration source.
Conditions of volumes that cannot be migrated
The following volumes cannot be sources or targets of migration:
•
Cross-system copy pair volumes.
