 Migration logs require the following handling:
 Always clear migration logs at the start of the project.
 Export migration logs onto your system after the project completes.
 Migration logs wrap after 1,024 migration log entries.
 If the source array controllers are configured in redundant fabrics, configure
one MPX200 port into Fabric A and the second port into Fabric B.
 When using the serial scheduling feature, configure similar size jobs with the
same priority.
 Array reconfiguration precautions include the following:
 If the LUN presentation from the array to the MPX200 is changed, click
the Refresh button two or three times to see the changes.
 Wait for a few seconds between retries because the MPX200 will be
running the discovery process.
 Remove unused arrays for the following reasons:
 The maximum number of arrays configured at any time is 7.
 Arrays stored in persistence consume resources even if the array is
offline and no longer needed.
 After the migration is complete, QLogic recommends that you remove
the arrays.
 If the array-based license was used and the array will not be used in
the next project, remove the license for this array.
 Array-based license use requires the following precautions:
 If you reconfigure a removed array, it may require a new array-based
license.
 You can use a maximum of 32 array-based licenses at any time.
 Use an array-based license if you require an ongoing replications of
LUNs for the array.
