The storage system at the secondary site of the temporary GAD pair used for migration will be the storage system at the target GAD primary site. For a detailed description of the steps used to create a GAD pair, see Workflow for creating a GAD environment. You do not need to set a volume for the quorum disk for the temporary GAD pair used for migration.



The source GAD pair and source UR pair must be in the PAIR status or must be suspended by specifying the P-VOL.
  1. Configure the secondary site of the temporary GAD pair used for migration by using the storage system at the source GAD primary site as the storage system at the primary site of the temporary GAD pair used for migration.
  2. Stop the CCI instance that is connecting to the source GAD primary site.
  3. Write in the configuration definition file the information of the P-VOL of the temporary GAD pair used for migration.
  4. Start the CCI instance.
  5. Create a GAD pair by specifying the volume used for the P-VOL of the source GAD pair as the P-VOL of the temporary GAD pair used for migration.

    The pair status of this temporary GAD pair does not change to PAIR and remains COPY.
