Open replicator for migration between IBM SVC and EMC VMAX3

Question

Hi all, Can you please let me know the compatibility between IBM SVC and VMAX3 (200K) for migrating the data using OPEN-REPLICATOR? We are trying to look out for different options in order to migrate the data from IBM SVC to VMAX3 which are thousands of miles away. 1) Thinking of using RecoverPoint to replicate data 2) Using Open-Replicator software to migrate data from IBM SVC to VMAX3           Basic doubt - after the completion of migration, will my data be still present in IBM SVC for future use or it will be completely erased. Please suggest the best option which needs to be used in this case. Thanks, Shishir

Data will never be erased on control array after the migration. You will have to manually reclaim the devices or follow to decom process to remove them.
