Some storage volumes on the destination server are not available for selection
Some storage volumes configured on the destination server might not be available for selection in
step 5 (Specify Destination Disks and Resize NTFS Partitions) of the migration
wizard.
Suggested action
If expected volumes do not appear, try one of the following:
•
Verify that Insight Control server migration supports the storage controller. Volumes configured
on an unsupported storage controller cannot be selected for migration. For more information
about supported controllers, see HP Insight Management Support Matrix at
.
•
Run the Array Configuration Utility or HP Smart Storage Administrator (HP SSA) (if your storage
controller is supported), and verify the status of the volumes on the Smart Array controller to
be sure that the volumes are not in a failed state. Also, verify that all volumes on the controller
are numbered sequentially beginning with Logical Drive 1, as required by the Insight Control
server migration. If volumes are not numbered sequentially, clear the configuration and re-create
the necessary volumes.
Static IP address cannot be assigned on the destination server while booting using
the Boot CD ISO
Assigning a static IP address on the destination server might result in an error similar to the following:
The IP address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx you have entered for this network adapter
is already assigned to another adapter.
Cause
This issue might occur if the IP address is assigned to another network adapter on the destination
server.
