Dynamic Volume Recovery
The Dynamic Volume Recovery feature provides the ability to rebuild a
dynamic volume from the LUNs originally in the volume. This feature
can be used for purposes such as the following:
• Move dynamic volumes from one cluster to another. Deport the
dynamic volumes on the original cluster and then import them on the
new cluster.
• Recover dynamic volumes from mirrored LUNs for disaster recovery
purposes. Import the dynamic volumes from the mirrored LUNs to
the replacement cluster.
Deport a Dynamic Volume
The volume to be deported must contain a PSFS filesystem. During the
deport operation, any mount points or drive letters are unassigned, the
filesystem is unmounted, and the psv binding (which Matrix Server uses
to control access to the dynamic volume) is removed.
To deport a dynamic volume, select Storage > Dynamic Volume > Deport
Volume.
