First steps to migrate information between two Flash systems

  • 1.  First steps to migrate information between two Flash systems

    Posted Fri August 15, 2025 01:08 PM

    Hi, I'm lost on this topic. How do I physically connect two FS5200? And then, what do I need to configure or create on both devices to transfer the information? Is there software that does this and is already integrated into the Flash system? Or am I mistaken and it can't be done? Thanks for your help.
    Best regards.

    You must connect them via Fibre Channel (zone on san switch). If you want to migrate all data and host definitions I recommended to upgrade 5200 to 9.1.0.1 and use FlashSystem Grid configuration to migrate all data and definitions from one to another
