Abstract: A volume rehost tool migrates a storage volume from a source virtual server within a distributed storage system to a destination storage server within the distributed storage system. The volume rehost tool can prevent client access to data on the volume through the source virtual server until the volume has been migrated to the destination virtual server. The tool identifies a set of storage objects associated with the volume, removes configuration information for the set of storage objects, and removes a volume record associated with the source virtual server for the volume. The tool can then create a new volume record associated with the destination virtual server, apply the configuration information for the set of storage objects to the destination virtual server, and allow client access to the data on the volume through the destination virtual server.

Abstract: A transition tool estimates a cutover time in a copy-free transition of storage objects. The transition tool determines how many storage objects of each type of storage object there are to transition from a source storage system to a destination storage system. The transition tool can measure an operation time for both the source storage system and the destination storage system. The transition tool can estimate an export duration using the source storage system operation time, the number of each type of storage object, and a number of operations for that type of storage object. The transition tool can estimate an import duration using the destination storage system operation time, the number of each type of storage object, and a number of operations for that type of storage object. A total cutover time can then be calculated from the export and import durations.
