24 Auto LUN XP for the XP12000/XP10000
Powering off disk arrays
To turn the power off at the disk array, ensure that volume migration is finished. If migration is not finished,
HP strongly recommends that you do not turn off the power until the migration is finished.
If you turn the power off while migration is in progress, data migration stops and some of the data are not
migrated. If you turn the power on later, Auto LUN XP resumes data migration. If data remains in shared
memory, which is volatile memory, Auto LUN XP attempts to copy only data that have not been migrated to
the migration destination. However, if data is lost from shared memory, Auto LUN XP attempts to copy all
data to the migration destination; therefore, the copy operation takes more time. Auto LUN XP attempts to
copy data that have not been migrated and data that have already been copied to the migration
destination.
To power off the disk array, obtain the monitoring results first. If you do not, the Physical tab will not display
some monitoring results. For example, if 4:00 a.m. and p.m. is specified in the Gathering Time option in
the Auto LUN XP Monitoring Options pane and you turn off the power to the disk array at 5:00 p.m., the
Physical tab will not display the monitoring results from 4:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.
