PowerProtect Data Manager 19.12 Administration and User Guide
Mobile storage unit migration within a system pool
Review the following PowerProtect Data Manager prerequisites and postrequisites before you migrate mobile storage units within a system pool through DDMC.
During a migration, the selected storage units are unavailable for protection workflows. However, you can coordinate the backup and migration schedules to reduce downtime for the affected workflows.
You can only migrate to a destination that matches the requirements of the mobile storage unit. The PowerProtect DD documentation provides more information about these requirements.
Supported asset types
- VMware virtual machines
- Oracle databases
- Microsoft SQL Server databases
- Microsoft Exchange Server databases
- File systems
- Network-attached storage (NAS) shares
- SAP HANA databases
- Kubernetes clusters
Migration
Perform the following actions:
- Review the PowerProtect DD documentation for migration instructions.
- Start the migration and complete all steps leading up to the commit stage.
- Before you commit the migration, stop the related PowerProtect Data Manager operations for the selected storage units. Stop PowerProtect Data Manager operations before mobile storage unit migration provides instructions.
- Commit the migration and wait for migration to complete.
- Restore full PowerProtect Data Manager operation. Restore PowerProtect Data Manager operations after mobile storage unit migration provides information.
- Optionally, verify operation. Verify operation after mobile storage unit migration provides information.
