Hello,

I want to move all the volumes(mirrors) in one server to a particular server. But i am not sure how to specify a particular server when migrating volumes. I tried the method of disabling all the server other than the destination server.
But that resulted in error since servers of both the mirrors are disabled and both mirrors trying to migrate to the destination server. As a result of this issue i had to migrate volumes one by one by disabling/enabling specific servers based on mirrors. Is there any better option for this process.

Hi Tino,

Thanks for posting on this.

If you want to migrate all volume from a pair of servers onto another pair, you can do this one server at a time.

The easiest way is to disable one of the servers and run vol migrate; then disable the other and do vol migrate again.

You can probably script this over ssh or with the API -- would this work for you?

Cheers,
