I want to migrate CG remote copies to a new array, would this method work?
Hello,
As I mentioned in the topic I want to migrate off a CX4-480 that is being used in the current environment to a VNX array at the same site. This would be only for the remote copy and not production.
We are running RecoverPoint 4.1.1 CL in our RP environment.
My plan is the following:
Enable the splitter on the VNX
Zone the VNX to the RP Cluster (Would this be a new zone or just add VNX ports to the existing RPA-Storage zone that has CX4-480?)
Create like for like LUNs for each CG e.g. test-remote_cg > DR_test-remote (Replication, Journal volumes)
Within the CG select add a copy name it DR_test-remote-new
Use the LUNs from the VNX to create replication sets and select journal volumes
Finish the wizard and let the new copy sync.
Once the new copy is synced up disable the old CG copy DR_test-remote then rename it DR-test-remote-old and rename the new copy to DR-test-remote
verify our bookmark script still works
delete the old cg
after all of the CG's are running on the VNX migrate the repository volume using the method outlined in KB article 184792
Remove the CX4-480 splitter
Once that is all complete, unzone the old array, and pat myself on the back.
Any thoughts on this or any recommendation you guys can provide?
Thanks in advance.
