a. If the host is a member of a cluster, clear all the SCSI reservations on the cluster disks.
For more information, see “Preparing Windows clusters for migration” (page 10).
b. Reconfigure the host to use the 3PAR DSM (Windows 2003) or the native Microsoft MPIO
DSM (Windows 2008, 2008R2, 2012).
Contact your local HP representative for information on acquiring the HP 3PAR MPIO for
Windows.
When reconfiguring a host to use the native Microsoft MPIO DSM on Windows 2008
or Windows 2012, use 3PARdataVV as the device hardware ID.

the host and the destination.
18. Bring the Windows host that was shut down back online.
19. When the migration is complete, the migration entry is deleted, and the Migration History is
updated with the information about the migration.

interrupted only during the time it takes to reconfigure the host and cluster.
