HP XP P9000 Command View Advanced Edition Software - Manual (Page 77)

• 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
• Volumes can be accessed, and are not reserved by other programs, Device Manager, or tasks.
• If the emulation type is not OPEN-V, and both the migration source and the migration target
volumes are normal, or both are CVS volumes.
Volume migration requirements related to volume type
Whether you can select a volume as a migration source or migration target depends on the volume
type. The following table shows which volume types can and cannot be selected as migration sources
