By: Joe Austin, Ventana Public Relations The SANpulse white paper - Best Practices for SAN Pre-Migration: "Getting the pre-migration process right is absolutely critical to a successful SAN implementation," The first step IT must take is to define, document and publish objectives and schedules. Most SAN migrations, for example, focus on installing new technology that offers a better price or higher performance, or satisfies business objectives. Developing project objectives, as well as describing them in terms of schedules, resources and outcomes, are both important, as is defining criteria to measure success. Given the complexity of SAN migration, the project management team must have the authority over and access to resources needed for accomplishing objectives. A thorough knowledge of what is in the SAN farm is crucial; it is not uncommon to discover things such as under- or over-allocated ports, or even unexpected assets, during pre-migration. Automated discovery software tools can help keep a migration on track. Finally, a successful migration requires discovering and analyzing the data center's infrastructure assets. Only then can managers understand the scope of the migration they are undertaking and determine what new assets are needed. Implementing Storage Resource Management (SRM) goes beyond topology, helping to optimize storage and make it more efficient.
