HP MPX200 Data Migration Planning Guide

7. Use the MPX200 to create user-defined groups to assign the migration jobs related to the
same server in a single group.
8. Use the user interface wizard to configure migration jobs.
During application downtime
1. Confirm with the storage administrator that the application and server are down, and that the
server no longer has access to the storage under migration.
2. Remove the server access to the source storage array by changing the FC zoning so server
adapter ports can no longer see the source or destination array ports.
3. If the server is not connected to any other storage arrays, consider bringing down the FC
switch ports to which the server is connected.
4. Start the previously configured migration jobs.
5. If required, install new multipathing software on the server.
6. After the data is migrated for the specified server or cluster, present the destination LUNs to
the server or cluster by changing the fabric zoning and LUN presentation from the array.
7. Reboot the server, and validate that the new LUNs are seen by the system and that the volumes
are mounted on the destination LUNs.
Validating data integrity
If there is a file system on the LUN, perform a quick file system check by bringing up the application
and confirming access to the data.
