ISR654608-00



Chapter 6 Command Line Interface

provides information on using the

command line interface (CLI) for data migration services. It defines the

guest

account and the user sessions:

admin

and

miguser

. In addition, for each

command, it provides a description, the required session type, and an

example.



Chapter 7 Performance and Best Practices

describes the factors affecting

DMS performance and offers suggestions for obtaining maximum

performance, provides recommendations for high availability and redundant

configurations, guidelines for choosing DMS options, and a few general

precautions for DMS usage.



Chapter 8 Restrictions

details the restrictions that apply to the DMS when

reconfiguring logical unit numbers (LUNs) on a storage array and removing

an array after completing data migration jobs.



Appendix A Configuring the Data Path Through iSR6200 for Online Data

Migration

provides the information you need to configure several types of

host multipathing software on Windows

, Linux

, HP-UX, IBM

AIX,

VMware

ESX, and Solaris

operating systems.



Appendix B Simple Network Management Protocol

provides reference

material for the simple network management protocol (SNMP), which you

can use to manage the iSR6200 router using a third-party SNMP

management application.



Appendix C Troubleshooting

lists some problems that may occur with DMS

and offers a possible reason or solution for each.

Following the appendices are a glossary of terms and acronyms used, and an

index to help you quickly find the information you need.

What’s in the Help System

Supplementing this user’s guide is the SANsurfer iSCSI/FC Router Manager help

system, which provides procedural topics for the following:



Managing the Router

provides procedures that walk you through some

common system management tasks performed using SANsurfer Router

Manager.



Using the Wizards

describes the wizard dialog boxes that walk you through

various router configuration procedures.



Configuring CHAP

describes the challenge handshake authentication

protocol (CHAP) and provides the procedures for configuring CHAP using

SANsurfer Router Manager.



Data Migration Service

provides much the same information as this guide’s

5 Performing Data Migration

chapter.
