Dell EMC Unity™ Family Third-Party System Migration using SAN Copy Pull User Guide

iSCSI preparation

1. Make sure that Ethernet interface cards (NIC) are connected on both the source and destination systems on the same Ethernet network.
2. Create the block iSCSI interfaces to be used for data transfer in Unity Unisphere:
   1. Under Storage, navigate to Block > iSCSI Interfaces.
   2. Click Add.
   3. Specify all necessary information, and click OK.
      NOTE Write down the CLI ID for each interface that is created. You will need them for the next step when using the -if option.
3. Create the iSCSI connection that will be used when creating iSCSI paths between the source and destination systems:
   1. Use the /remote/iscsi/connection create -name <value> [-descr <value>] [-async] to create a connection.
4. Add iSCSI paths to establish iSCSI protocol connectivity between the source controllers and each destination Unity SP:
   1. Use the /remote/iscsi/connection/path create {-connection <value> | -connectionName <value>} [-descr <value>] -addr <value> [-port <value>] -if <value> [-async] command to create an iSCSI connection path.
5. Create a migration session. The migration operation requires you to know the Source system Name, the Source system LUN WWN, and the destination Unity LUN resource ID or Name.
   1. Use the /import/session/generic create [-name <value>] [-descr <value>] [-srcSystemName <value>] -srcLUNWWN <value> {-targetRes <value> | -targetResName <value>} [-throttle {Low | Medium | High}] [-async] command to create a migration session.
      NOTE By default, the throttle value assigned to the migration session is High. You can specify a throttle value other than High during the migration session creation, or modify it after the session is created.
