HP StorageWorks SAN Virtualization Services Platform Manager User Guide (5697-0454, May 2010)

• Information Lifecycle Management (ILM)—As the value of data changes over time, migration enables
you to migrate virtual disks to appropriate storage pools, in terms of performance, capacity, and
availability.
The migration service can only be used within the same domain. If you need to migrate virtual disks
to storage systems managed by another domain, create an asynchronous remote mirror group and
perform the Detach operation on the group after performing a planned failover to the remote copy.
For information about asynchronous mirroring, see “Asynchronous mirroring” on page 269.
Viewing the migration groups list
The migration groups list displays all migration groups managed in the domain.
To display the migration groups list:
In the navigation tree, click the Migration Groups node. The migration groups list appears in the list
area. The following information is displayed for each migration group.
