HP Insight Control - Manual (Page 91)

•
Verify that a Windows NT boot loader (NTLDR) is installed.
•
During migration, the migration agent initiates an operating system reboot on the source physical
machine. Verify that the operating system is on the first boot order. The Insight Control application
supports migration of source physical machines that have operating systems installed on the primary
drive (Hard Disk0) and the primary drive loaded first in the boot order.
•
Record the drive letter or mount point to disk-partition mapping for dynamic disk partitions before
performing the migration. Any simple (non-extended) dynamic disk partitions are converted to basic
disk partitions. The mapped drive letters might have to be manually reassigned after migration.
Destination physical machine prerequisites
•
The primary storage controller must be configured with drives attached.
•
The destination server must be booted to Insight Control server migration Boot CD and running migration
agent.
•
Before migrating a source server with BitLocker Drive Encryption enabled and drives encrypted using
BitLocker, decrypt the drives on the source server and disable BitLocker.
•
When a migration is started from a Win2003 Application station to a Win2008 source server,
migrations will be blocked in step 1 of the migration wizard. However agent launch either from the
CMS or by manual installation would be complete. In order to stop the agent on the Windows 2008
source server, manually run stopHPSMPAgent.cmd tool on the source desktop.
