- Provides online, non-disruptive, on-demand data mobility between HPE 3PAR StoreServ Storage systems.
- Non-disruptively migrates data between HPE 3PAR StoreServ Storage systems while the application remains online.
- Non-disruptive data mobility between any HPE 3PAR StoreServ Storage systems unlocks the flexibility to optimize the purchase and addition of new resources to an existing system over its lifecycle.
- Leverages HPE 3PAR StoreServ Thin Built-In ASIC to power the simple and rapid conversion of inefficient, “fat” volumes on source system to more efficient, higher-utilization “thin” volumes on the destination HPE 3PAR StoreServ.
HPE 3PAR Peer Motion Software is the first non-disruptive, do-it-yourself data migration tool for enterprise Storage Area Networks. With Peer Motion, HPE 3PAR StoreServ Storage System customers can load balance I/O workloads across systems at will, perform technology refresh seamlessly, cost-optimize asset lifecycle management, and lower technology refresh capital expenditure. Unlike traditional block migration approaches, Peer Motion enables customers to migrate storage volumes between any HPE 3PAR StoreServ Storage Systems online, non-disruptively, and without complex planning or dependency on extra tools. Peer Motion leverages HPE 3PAR Thin Built In technology to power the simple and rapid conversion of inefficient, "fat" volumes on source arrays to more efficient, higher-utilization "thin" volumes on the destination HPE 3PAR StoreServ Storage System. To ensure a simple and fool-proof data migration and data mobility for workload balancing experience, orchestration of all stages of data mobility is available via either 3PAR Management Console or 3PAR Peer Motion CLI, which is an easy to use, scriptable command line interface tool.
