When defining storage for a portable logical server, you must select SAN Storage Entry. For
flexibility and movement between underlying technology types, storage must be presented to the
WWNs tied to the Virtual Connect server profile, and storage must also be presented to any ESX
VM hosts that are potential targets for the logical server. Storage Pool Entries must be created
within the same portability group associated with the logical servers that will use the storage as
illustrated in

Moving between technologies

Activation and movement of cross-technology logical servers is accomplished in the same way as
with standard logical servers. However, the Unlike Move operation is used for cross-technology
logical servers when an Activate or Move operation is about to be performed on a server with a
different underlying technology from its previous target host. An Unlike Move operation is illustrated
in
