8. The Online Import from External Device window appears. Click Next.
9. Select the server to map to the destination volume. Click Next.
a. If a Quality of Service (QoS) definition does not exist on the SC Series array, a prompt will appear
to create one. Click Yes to continue. Clicking No will cancel the import process.
Note: The QoS definition limits or throttles the bandwidth available to the Thin Import process because the
import process will use all available bandwidth to transfer data, by default. Allocating too much bandwidth to
the process can be detrimental to overall system performance. Allocating too little bandwidth will cause the
import process to run slowly. If possible, test the process and monitor system performance to determine
proper bandwidth allocation.
b. Assign a Name to the QoS definition. Enter a Link Speed that is equivalent or less than the line
speed of the iSCSI network connecting the PS Series array and the SC Series array. When
enabled, the Bandwidth Limited option allows daily scheduling of bandwidth allocation in one-
hour increments. Click OK when finished.
