Create the switchover information storage folders in the admin servers of the switchover source and destination sites. In the LUNs for switchover information storage folders, create the folders in the following configurations:
[Windows Manager]

The information stored in each folder within the switchover information storage folder is as below.
Switchover information storage folder
Parent folder. The following folders must be created. Any folder name can be used.
Switchover information storage folder\Image
Stores physical server images. Create the folder when migrating physical server images between sites.
Switchover information storage folder\ManagerExport
Folder to store the configuration information of the Resource Orchestrator manager. The following folders must be created.
Switchover information storage folder\MAP
Folder to store the mapping information of physical server names and VM management software names. Create the folder, when the physical server or VM management software names are different between sites.
Switchover information storage folder\OtherBackupFiles
Store files other than those described above. The following folders must be created.
