Not able to create migration
Possible causes:
• Duplicate volumes exist. This may occur if either a virtual volume with same name or with the
same WWN exists on the destination storage system.
• A host on the destination storage system has a duplicate name.
• The destination storage system does not have enough capacity.
• EMC SMI-S Provider is running an unsupported software version.
• EMC SMI-S Provider user name/password have changed since source storage system was
added.
• EMC SMI-S Provider is not managing the EMC Storage system.
• The HP 3PAR Online Import Utility server and EMC SMI-S Provider do not have network
connectivity.
• EMC SMI-S Provider and EMC Storage system do not have network connectivity.
• The EMC Storage system is running an unsupported firmware version.
• The LUNs or host provided are in an invalid storage group configuration.
• The LUNs are not eligible for migration (a LUN must be Fibre Channel, and cannot be a
replication LUN or reserved).
• The operational state of EMC Storage system does not allow migration.
• There is no connection between source and destination storage systems.
• The wrong migration type is used.
Solution: Check each of the above conditions to identify which may be causing the problem, then
resolve it.

Solution: This problem can occur when the host is already added to the destination. Delete the
host from the destination and then execute the createmigration command.
