Abstract:
In one aspect, a method includes replicating a first volume of a first storage array to a second volume of a second storage array and notifying a first splitter of a start of migration. The first splitter is configured to send I/Os sent from an application to the first volume to a first data replication appliance (DPA) to be replicated at the second volume and configured to send the I/Os to the first volume. The method also includes configuring a second splitter of a third storage array to: ignore data migrating from the first volume to the third volume and send the I/Os sent from the application to the third volume to the first DPA to be replicated at the second volume and to send the I/Os to the third volume; and migrating data from the first volume to the third volume.
