Re: migrating an iscsi card

[Larry Bolhuis <lbolhuis@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Rob,

Well I have not done this but the config pieces would logically all 
move together. There are some new objects with iSCSI that didn't exist 
with IXS IXA but what I would do is a SAVCFG and then on the target 
system a RSTCFG  being SURE to specify ALWOBJDIF(*ALL)

 Then either FTP over or tape restore the disk images.  You may have to 
tweak the NWSD to use a different resource name because the iSCSI card 
likely will get a new resource name. The important stuff that glues the 
iSCSI cards together though is the MAC addresses of the cards and those 
won't change when you move them.

 Should be a piece of cake.
