28 Migration
Application-related migrations
This section provides information about the following topics:
• Supported migration applications
• How Command View AE affects applications that integrate with Command View
• Alternative migrations
Supported migration applications
Use Table 12 to determine the specific versions of software applications that are supported for migration
with Command View AE.
NOTE: If certain combinations of two products are not supported, then migrations also will not support
that combination.
Fast Recovery Solution (FRS)
Command View must remain in the environment, because the Command View AE server does not support
FRS. Continue to run HP FRS, which uses HP VDS.
Standalone Hitachi software
You do not need to migrate standalone Hitachi software products that Command View does not support if
your environment includes both Command View and Command View AE. Examples of such Hitachi
software products include Hitachi NAS/Management, HMBR, Data Integrity Check, and HDLM.
OpenView Storage Area Manager (Storage Area Manager)
Command View AE 1.0 does not integrate with Storage Area Manager. It is recommended that you wait
for versions of Storage Area Manager that support Command View AE.
Path Connectivity-related migrations
Some of the features in Path Connectivity are not supported in Command View AE. You can either continue
to use Command View and Path Connectivity for that functionality, or you can transition to Command View
AE and use other applications for the path-connectivity functionality.
Table 12 Applications supported for integration
Application Supported release Comments
System Insight Manager
(SIM)
5.0
NOTE: System
Insight Manager may
not fully integrate
with Command View
AE, please refer to
the SIM support
documentation for
latest information.
Because the first release of Command View AE does not provide
SMI-S alert indication, you cannot get SMI-S events from System
Insight Manager. It is recommended that you maintain your
existing integration setup until Command View AE develops a
release that integrates fully with SIM.
