M.2.1 Copying Disk Data

1. Copy the system Disk

   Copy the system disk image to the destination system.

   After copying the system disk image, change the settings of the OS and other MW referring to the manuals for each product.

2. Copy the disks that are registered in a local class or a shared class of GDS.

   The disks registered in local or shared classes of GDS can be copied by one of the following methods:

   1. Copy the whole data of the disk including the GDS private slice.

   2. Copy the data of the GDS private slice only.

   3. Copy the data of the volume area only.

   4. Do not copy any of the disk data.

   Determine the copy range by the specifications of the cloning software or function you use for data copying (data of which area can be copied) and by the need of copying the data from the volume area.
