Explanation

Surely A, if the physical servers meant here are the servers of the existing P4000 G2 Cluster swap enables the online replacement of all storage systems in a LeftHand cluster with another set of storage systems. A cluster swap replaces the physical components of a LeftHand cluster while maintaining the logical cluster and the data therein. Cluster swap offers LeftHand customers non-disruptive, built-in, and flexible data mobility Benefits of Cluster Swap A highlighted benefit of cluster swap is the seamless movement of data volumes without disruption to users and/or application processing. Volume migrations are performed without required changes to network mount points or changes to logical drive mappings, eliminating the need for end-user reconfiguration. Other benefits are: • Migration of data volumes from any LeftHand system with a few simple clicks within the CMC • Reduce complex planning and eliminate application I/O downtime during storage system consolidations and technology refresh initiatives • Right size LeftHand storage clusters at -will- while preserving application service levels When to use Cluster Swap Use the cluster swap feature to seamlessly swap out all LeftHand nodes in a cluster at once. Common use cases for cluster swap are: • Refresh storage technology of any LeftHand platform • Upgrade all storage systems in a cluster to a higher performing or capacity storage tier • Downgrade all storage systems in a cluster to a less expensive storage tier
