Enable PowerFlex to use the attached IP as a storage data target
To prepare for data mobility, configure the storage data target (SDT) on the deployed PowerFlex system with routable IP.
Steps
Log in to the PowerFlex Element Manager.
Go to
Block > NVMe Targets.
Each SDT has an IP address from the nonroutable IPs assigned in the deployment phase.
Select the first SDT and click
Modify.
In the
Modify NVMe target window, change the current private IP Role to
Storage Only.
Click
Add Target IP.
Insert the IP attached to that instance in AWS.
Assign the IP the role of
Host Only.
Click
Modify NVMe Target.
Repeat this process for all the SDTs.
Results
All the SDTs on the PowerFlex installations that are deployed on AWS are routable from the on-premises PowerFlex system. The NVMe over TCP traffic now flows between the on-premises and AWS PowerFlex system.
