HP 3PAR Online Import for EMC Storage Data Migration Guide

When migrating a Windows Server 2012 active/passive cluster, maintenance mode must be set
on the cluster disks to clear SCSI reservations on the disks. Because the quorum disk cannot be set
in the maintenance mode, it must be set to the offline mode to clear the SCSI reservations. Then,
the cluster service must be stopped on ALL nodes.
For active/active clusters, offline all disks. For more information, see Microsoft documentation on
how to start/stop the cluster services. For more information, see Microsoft's documentation on how
to start/stop the cluster services
Identifying Source and Destination Storage Systems
This section provides information on how to identify and add the source storage system for migration.
There are pre-requisites and information needed before beginning.
Pre-requisites
• The SMI-S Provider is installed and operational.
• Source EMC Storage system has storage group configured with host(s) and volume(s) to be
migrated.
• HP 3PAR Online Import Utility is installed and operational with network access to both SMI-S
Provider server managing the source EMC Storage system and Management server for the
destination HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage system.
• Source EMC Storage system and destination HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage system are zoned.
Required Information
Source Storage System:
• IP address of the SMI-S Provider that is managing the source EMC Storage system where the
volumes are being migrated.
◦ If the SMI-S server is managing more than one source EMC Storage system and you only
want to identify one of them you need to know the WWN of the source storage system.
• Username and password for the EMC SMI-S Provder.
• Port to access the EMC SMI-S Provider.
Secure port default 5989.◦
◦ Non-secure port default 5988.
Destination Storage System
• IP address of the Management server of the destination HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage system.
• Username and password for the HP 3PAR management application.
Identify the Source Storage System
To identify the source storage system:
1. From the HP 3PAR Online Import Utility execute the addsource command.
NOTE: Use your local host username and password credentials.
Example 1 addsource command
>addsource -type VNX -mgmtip 10.10.10.10 -user admin -password 1Password -uid
50067890C6E059EE
>SUCCESS: Added source storage system
