Centera Migration

Hello,

Due to end of service of our Centera I have to migrate all the data from Centera to and IBM box ( it is compatible with ev9...).

I would like to know if there is a tool from Symantec to perform this migration ? (as the ntfstocentera.exe was to migrate to centera).

I know I can open a new partition for the new disk system but centera has to disappear also.

We are using EV for Exchange 9.0 SP2

Thank you for your help

  • In addition to GlobaNet and TransVault don't forget Akaibu as an option and there is also Quadrotech's Archive Shuttle.

    and http://www.quadrotech-it.com

    Look at your various options and find the best fit.

  • I believe you will either have to use move archive or go to a third party such as globanet or transvault to do the migration
  • hi sandrine, what type(s) of archived data do you have on the centera? (exchange mailbox, exchange journal, domino, FSA, SP, etc?) how much in GB, and how many archives if we're talking about users' mailboxes?

    like JW said, move archive is an option depending on what data you have in there and how much of it but a much more versatile option would be TransVault. again, this all depends on what you have archived in there...

  • Thank you so much for all your answers. It is exactly what I thought but the storage people told me that I was impossible that Symantec didn't think at such kind of migration so I wanted to be sure before asking for  a third party tool.

    I try to move exchange mailbox archives no journal no domino (~35 Tb & 45000 archives)
