Migrating a Logical Drive
To migrate a logical drive is to:
• Change its RAID level
• Add one or more physical drives

migration takes place on the logical drive without disturbing the existing data.
While the logical drive is migrating, you can access the data as before. When
migration is complete, your logical drive will have a different RAID level, a larger
capacity, or both.
For more information, see “Logical Drive Migration” on page 108.
You can set up a Migration to:
