IBM Storwize V5030 User Manual

Chapter 11. External storage virtualization 653
If you choose to import a volume as an image mode volume, the external LUN appears as
an MDisk with an associated image mode volume name and can be listed, as shown in
Figure 11-14.
Figure 11-14 Image mode volumes
The volume is also listed in the System Migration panel because the IBM Storwize
V5030 expects you to migrate these volumes later, as shown in Figure 11-15.
Figure 11-15 Migrations are available for image mode volumes
At the end of this process, the volume can be mapped to a host.
