P2000 data migration
The P2000 G3 Fibre Channel storage system supports data migration using the HP StorageWorks
MPX200 Multifunction Router data migration feature. This feature provides for block (LUN) level
data movement between source and destination storage systems.
MPX200 Multifunction Router with data migration
The MPX200 Multifunction Router supports iSCSI, FCoE, data migration, and FCIP. The base
functionality is iSCSI/FCoE, with the option to add one other license-enabled function—either data
migration or FCIP for standalone or concurrent operation. This section describes data migration
usage and support.
• For information about FCoE, see “FCoE SAN fabrics” (page 24).
• For information about iSCSI configurations, see “MPX200 Multifunction Router with iSCSI for
P6000/EVA storage” (page 333), “MPX200 Multifunction Router with iSCSI for XP storage”
(page 342), and “MPX200 Multifunction Router with iSCSI for 3PAR StoreServ Storage” (page
339).
• For information about FCIP, see “MPX200 Multifunction Router with FCIP” (page 282).
A license is required to enable the data migration feature in the MPX200. All licenses are
chassis-based, enabling data migration to be configured in both bays (slots) in a dual-blade chassis
configuration.
The following licenses are available for data migration:
• HP Storage Works MPX200 1TB Full Chassis Data Migration License—Includes the license to
migrate 1 TB of data using an MPX200 chassis.
• HP Storage Works MPX200 5TB Full Chassis Data Migration License—Includes the license to
migrate 5 TB of data using an MPX200 chassis.
• HP Storage Works MPX200 Full Chassis 1 Array Data Migration License—Includes the license
to migrate data from or to a single array using an MPX200 chassis.
NOTE: The MPX200 data migration has a unique fan-in/fan-out licensing model. Using this
particular license, you can migrate data from multiple arrays to a single array or from a single
array to multiple arrays. This license cannot be used when performing an iSCSI to iSCSI data
migration. For iSCSI to iSCSI data migration, you must use 1TB or 5TB capacity licenses.
Table 106 (page 216) describes the supported source and destination storage systems when using
the MPX200 data migration feature. All arrays listed are supported for offline and online data
migration, except where noted. Table 107 (page 216) describes the operating system support for
online data migration. For information about configuring the MPX200 for data migration, see the
HP MPX200 Multifunction Router Data Migration Solution Guide.
