text: Migration offers the following options: 
  
  (cid:2) Export to Image mode. By using this option, you can move storage from managed mode to 
  image mode, which is useful if you are using the Storwize V7000 as a migration device. For 
  example, vendor A’s product cannot communicate with vendor B’s product, but you must 
  migrate data from vendor A to vendor B. By using Export to Image mode, you can migrate 
  data by using Copy Services functions and then, return control to the native array while 
  maintaining access to the hosts. 
  
  (cid:2) Import to Image mode. By using this option, you can import a storage MDisk or LUN with 
  its data from an external storage system without putting metadata on it so that the data 
  remains intact. After you import it, all copy services functions can be used to migrate the 
  storage to other locations while the data remains accessible to your hosts. 
  
  (cid:2) Volume migration by using volume mirroring and then by using Split into New Volume. By 
  using this option, you can use the available RAID 1 functions. You create two copies of 
  data that initially has a set relationship (one volume with two copies, one primary and one 
  secondary) but then break the relationship (two volumes, both primary and no relationship 
  between them) to make them independent copies of data.
