5. Transfer the physical tapes to the remote site 6. Import data from the tapes onto the remote LAN/WAN replication target Once the tape initialization process is complete, the automatic migration of deduplicated data from the source site to the target site over the LAN/WAN begins. See "Exporting Data to Physical tapes for Tape Initialization" on page 104 and "Importing Data from Physical Tapes for Tape Initialization" on page 105 for the specific procedures. Connecting a Destination Library Automigration requires one or more dedicated destination libraries to be connected to the VLS device. Supported Destination Library Configurations Automigration is supported on: • HP MSL series tape libraries • HP EML series tape libraries or library partitions • HP ESL E-series tape libraries or library partitions • HP VLS virtual libraries Using automigration, you can share a single destination library across multiple virtual libraries (maximum of 20 drives on the physical libraries), or configure multiple destination libraries to be used in a single virtual library. CAUTION: Automigration only supports destination libraries that have homogeneous drive types; for example, all drives are LTO-2. A mixture of drive types in the destination library, such as LTO-3 and LTO-2, is not supported. NOTE: Automigration allows you to use a VLS as a destination library. Because of this feature, it can also be used as a device-to-device local replication scheme. Connecting a Destination Library to the VLS6000-series To connect the destination library to a VLS6000 device: 1. Choose the number of fibre channel ports on the VLS6000 to be used to connect to the destination library. HP StorageWorks 75
