For more information, see

Mapping external LUs (Add LU)

.

CAUTION:

To migrate existing data in the mapped external LU to a local array volume using Auto

LUN XP or Business Copy XP, as shown in

Figure 14

, set the local array's emulation type to

OPEN-V when mapping the LU. Only OPEN-V emulation can be used to read existing data

in the external LU from the local array side.
To copy existing data in the mapped external LU using HP StorageWorks software products,

such as Continuous Access XP and Business Copy XP, the mapped external LU's emulation

type must also be OPEN-V.

2.

Prepare a local array internal LDEV with the same capacity as the mapped external LU. Use Volume

Manager to adjust the internal LDEV's capacity as required. For instructions, see the HP StorageWorks

LUN Configuration and Security Manager XP user guide for the XP12000/XP10000/SVS200.

CAUTION:

The emulation type of the local array's prepared internal LDEV must be OPEN-V.

3.

Set the mapped external LU as the source volume, and set the local array internal LDEV as the

target volume.

4.

Use Auto LUN XP to manually migrate existing data in the mapped external LU to the local array

internal LDEV (without changing the associated LDEV/LU).

Using external LUs for Continuous Access XP operations

Figure 15

shows an example of using an external LU for Continuous Access XP operations. The mapped

external LU is set as the Continuous Access XP pair's S-VOL, and the volume in the local array that is

connected as the MCU is set as the Continuous Access XP pair's P-VOL. For more information about

Continuous Access XP operations, see the HP StorageWorks Continuous Access XP user guide for the

XP12000/XP10000/SVS200.
