Preparing MD3 volumes for import
37 Data Migration from Dell PS Series or PowerVault MD3 to Dell EMC SC Series Storage using Thin Import | 3041-BP-EM
a. In the Host type drop-down, select Windows.
Note: Selecting a host type other than Windows will cause imports from the MD3 array to fail.
b. Click Next.
c. Click Finish to create the host.
4.3 Mapping MD3 volumes to an SC Series array
Prior to importing MD3 volumes to an SC Series array, the volume(s) to import must be mapped to the SC
Series server host object that was created on the MD3 array previously.
Changing the mapping of volumes in an MD3 array is covered in the online and offline importing steps in
section 7 or 8.2.
4.4 Establishing an SC Series remote iSCSI connection to an MD3 array
1. Open the Dell Storage Client and click Log in to a Storage Center or Data Collector.
Note: The Dell Storage Client can connect to a Dell Storage Manager Data Collector or connect directly to SC
Series storage. Both options are supported with the Thin Import process. The instructions in this section focus
only on connecting directly to SC Series storage. Using Thin Import with MD3 volumes requires client version
2016 R3.10 or later.
2. Log in to the Dell Storage Client using administrative credentials.
3. Click the Storage tab and navigate to Fault Domains > iSCSI.
