Inserting the Router in the Data Path
Follow these steps to insert the iSR6200 in the
data path:
1. Remove the first direct path from the controller
port (for example, Port A) by zoning out the first
direct path from the Fibre Channel switch. The
path should disappear from the Manage Paths
dialog box shown in Figure 2-1.
2. Add the first router path for the removed
controller port (for example, Port A) by zoning
the target map and host ports. The new path
should appear in the Manage Paths dialog box.
3. Remove the second direct path from the
controller port (for example, Port B) by zoning
out the second direct path from the Fibre
Channel switch. To confirm that the path has
been removed from the path list on the Manage
Paths dialog box, click Refresh.
4. Add the second router path for the removed
controller port (for example, Port B) by zoning
the target map and host ports. The new path
should appear in the Manage Paths dialog box.

Presenting Destination LUNs on VMware ESX 3.5
After data migration is complete and the destination LUN is ready, follow these steps. This example
uses the source LUN as the data storage on which virtual machines are installed. The destination LUN has
a larger capacity to show how to expand the data storage after migration.
