HP 3PAR Peer Motion Guide

NOTE: Removing a source/destination storage system also removes the migration history for the
respective source/destination storage system.
Minimally Disruptive Migration
To perform MDM, follow the steps and execute the commands in the following order:
1. addsource -mgmtip <ipaddress> -user <username> -password <password>
-type 3PAR
2. showsource
3. adddestination -mgmtip <ipaddress> <username> -password <password>
-type 3PAR
4. showdestination
5. showconnection
6. createmigration -sourceuid <sourceuid> -srcvolmap
[{"<volumename>","<destinationprovisioning>","<destinationCPG>"}]
-migtype MDM
7. showmigration -migrationid <migrationid>
NOTE: In case there is a need to abort the prepared migration, use the removemigration
command for the same: removemigration -migrationid <migrationid>.
8. IMPORTANT: On fabric, remove zone Z3 and add zone Z4 upon successful preparation
completion.
9. startmigration –migrationid <migrationid>
10. showmigrationdetails –migrationid <migrationid>.
This completes the successful flow of the migration.
The following optional commands are to be used to remove the added source and destination
storage systems:
1. removesource -uid <uid> -type 3par
2. removedestination -uid <uid>
NOTE: Removing a source/destination storage system also removes the migration history for the
respective source/destination storage system.

order:
1. addsource -mgmtip <ipaddress> -user <username> -password <password>

2. showsource
3. adddestination -mgmtip <ipaddress> <username> -password <password>
-type 3PAR
4. showdestination
5. showconnection
6. createmigration -sourceuid <sourceuid> -srcvolmap
