Vicom Migration Process – Migration

Best Practice – Windows Boot LUN Migration

1. Update HBA BIOS, if needed.

2. Connect Server HBA to destination SAN (if source SAN is different from destination

SAN). Zone (FC) server HBA and destination storage ports together. Configure LUN masking so that server can access LUNs from the destination storage.

3. If there are multiple paths to destination storage, connect only one path and temporarily disconnect all other paths.

4. Configure HBA BIOS setting such that HBA can recognize boot LUN from destination

storage (by WWPN).

5. Bring-up server; boot from destination storage.

6. Install proper multipath driver (Snap Drive) for the destination storage, then shutdown the server.

7. Reconnect all other paths to the destination storage, and bring-up the system again.

8. Run chkdisk to verify the file system.

9. Examine log files (system, application) for errors and warnings. 10. Start applications and verify user data.

Wells Fargo

- Forbes-ranked 41st largest bank/financial services provider

“Really good news. Thank NetApp and Vicom so very much. Excellent work and

tremendous effort.” - Partner

“Everything went very well, and Vicom handled their part of the work without any problems. It was obvious that Vicom people are knowledgeable and experienced (in data migrations), and their software tools and DME appliance all look to work very well. I have nothing but good things to report, and I would strongly recommend Vicom for other SAN migrations.”

•

Federal Regulations requires sensitive or classified information

must be cleared prior to returning of storage system.

– Gramm-Leach-Bliley (GLB) for financial institutions

– Fair and Accurate Credit Transaction Act (FACT) of 2003

– Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)

– Sarbanes-Oxley for publicly traded companies.

•

Ensure crucial information like company, employee and customer

information is securely sanitized.

•

When to do data sanitization?

– Retiring storage

– Returning leased storage

– Upgrading storage

Additional DMS Service

Additional DMS Service

How Vicom Data Sanitization Works?

•

Conforms to U.S. Department of Defense requirements for

sanitizing disks. DoD recommends, “Overwriting with a pattern,

and then its complement, and finally with another pattern.

Sanitization is not complete until all six passes of three cycles are

completed.”

– Example,

" Write to disk with pattern ‘00110101’

" Write to disk with the complement pattern ‘11001010’

" Write to disk with another pattern ‘10010111’

•

Vicom Data Sanitization Software does the above process two

times with different patterns.

Additional DMS Service

Why Vicom Data Sanitization?

•

Host based does not sanitize the data reliably.

– Deleting a file merely removes its name from the directory structure’s

special disk sectors. User data remains in the drive.

– Reformatting a disk drive clears the file directory and severs the links

between storage sectors, but the user data remains and can be recovered

until the sectors are overwritten.

– Host based tool can not remove OS protected data.

– Spare drives are internal to storage system, not visible to OS.

•

Vicom data sanitization service guarantees data destruction

– Removing compliance liability.

– Conforms to DoD guidelines.

– Sanitize Open System data and Mainframe data.

– Fastest method.

Additional DMS Service

LUN Stacking

•

Disk Volume Re-layout (LUN Stacking)

• Consolidate multiple small LUN to fewer large LUN.
