Host Base Migration

� Benefits– Uses existing host base volume

management

– Non-disruptive to application server

– Heterogeneous array migration

– No added cost (other than cost of volume manager with mirroring capability)

� Draw Backs– CPU intensive when migrating

– Affects application performance

Data Migration Solutions – Storage Base

Storage Array Base Migration� Benefits

– Offloads application server CPU– Migrates multiple servers at a time

� Draw Backs – Uses Proprietary replication

technology from array– Requires separate port for specific

replication (migration) on array– Migration within same vendor’s family

of storage and may have to be within same tier

– Very costly $$$

N-Port Virtualizer (NPV)Enabling Large-Scale Blade Server Deployments

� NPV simplifies deployment and management of large scale Blade Server environments by:

Reducing number of Domain IDs Minimizing interoperability issues with core SAN switchesMinimizing coordination between Server and SAN administrators

� NPV converts a Blade Switch operating as “FC Switch” to a “FC HBA”

� NPV is available on the following platforms

IBM and HP Blade SwitchesMDS 9124 & 9134 Fabric Switches
