text: **7.7 Migrating a volume to another storage pool**
  
  IBM Spectrum Virtualize enables online volume migration with no applications downtime. 
  Volumes can be moved between storage pools without affecting business workloads that are 
  running on these volumes. 
  
  There are two ways to perform volume migration: by using the volume migration feature and 
  by creating a volume copy. These approaches are described next. 
  
  **7.7.1 Volume migration using migration feature**
  
  The migration process is a low priority process that does not affect the performance of the 
  IBM Spectrum Virtualize system. However, as subsequent volume extents are moved to the 
  new storage pool, the performance of the volume is determined more by the characteristics of 
  the new storage pool.
