A system and method for transferring a logical partition is provided that includes (i) a source server having a logical partition and at least one virtualized port for communication with at least one physical access port; (ii) a target server having at least one physical access port; and (iii) a storage server having a plurality of access ports, where a first access port is configurable to be in communication with the source server and a second, different access port is configurable to be in communication with the target server, wherein the logical partition has a first I/O path that includes the first access port of the storage server, and wherein the system and method is configurable to create a second I/O path for the logical partition that includes the second access port of the storage server.
A method of migrating resources in a computing environment, the computing environment comprising a source system, a target system and a storage server for storing data wherein the source system is configured to access the storage server and the target system is configured to access the storage server, the method comprising:
A system providing for transfer of a logical partition, the system comprising:
A method of migrating resources in a computing environment, the computing environment comprising a source system, a target system and a storage server having a plurality of access ports and one or more logical units (LUNs), wherein a logical partition on the source system accesses the one or more logical units (LUNs) through a first access port on the storage server, and the target system accesses the storage server through a second access port on the storage server that is different than the first access port, the method comprising:
