Chapter 7. Storage Migration Wizard
In this chapter, we describe how to migrate existing data from external storage systems to
IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node. Migrating the data allows applications to benefit from
new features, such as Easy Tier, an intuitive management GUI, and advanced storage
replication functions that better support applications.
To migrate data, we use the built-in Storage Migration Wizard on IBM Flex System V7000
Storage Node, which is easy to use and helps guide you through the entire procedure.
