l Wait for user intervention before cutover—If you select this option,

Storage Mirroring Data Migration will pause the migration process after the

source data has been mirrored to the target, which allows you time to

coordinate any other tasks. Replication will continue during this time. If you

do not select this option, cutover will be automatic, meaning the source will

cutover to the target immediately after the mirror is complete. If your source is

running applications, it is important that you enable this option. During the

intervention time, you can stop your applications that are running on the

source. This lets you stop services cleanly on the source and let that final

application data be replicated and applied on the target. This helps ensure

your applications will start cleanly on the target after cutover.

l Shut down the source server—Specify if you want to shut down the source

server before the migration job is terminated.

10. At the Migration summary page, you can review the choices you have made and

you can also configure optional settings. If you need to make any changes to the

selections you made, click Back to return to the previous pages. If you want to

configure optional settings, click Configure. Once you have completed your

configuration, click Finish to start the migration.

11. Monitor the progress of the migration mirror on the Monitor page.

12. When the migration mirror has completed, the migration job may or may not

terminate automatically depending on your selection for Wait for user

intervention before cutover. If you disabled user intervention, the migration job

will terminate automatically to complete the migration process. If you enabled user

intervention, when the migration mirror is complete, the status will change to

Ready for Cutover. Use this time to complete any necessary tasks. When you are

ready to complete the migration, click Cutover on the Monitor page toolbar to

complete the migration process, which will terminate the migration job.

Note: If your source was disconnected from the network during the cutover

process, the original job that was mirroring the data will still be active on

that machine. Do not bring that machine back on the network. If you do, the

original job will attempt to begin mirroring data again which could result in

data loss. While the machine is still disconnected from the network, stop the

Storage Mirroring service, delete the file connect.sts located in the Storage

Mirroring Data Migration installation directory, and then restart the Storage

Mirroring. This will delete the original job. After the original job is deleted,

you can bring the machine on the network if desired.
