System and Method for Automatic Data Migration and Disk Mapping

An automated data migration planning system comprising:

• a user interface configured to enable at least one user to:
• create a new data migration project;
• identify migration team members and respective access privileges;
• initiate execution of a script configured to collect information about at least one component of a source infrastructure from which data migration is to be performed and generating a log file describing the at least one component;
• upload a custom file specifying at least one additional component in the source infrastructure;
• receive a specification of at least one component of a destination infrastructure to which data migration will be received;
• and
• a logic module configured to:
• automatically select a migration type in response to the description of the at least one component in the log file and at least one additional component in the custom file;
• automatically validate compatibility of the destination infrastructures for data migration;
• automatically transmit notification regarding migration schedule to system end users;
• and
• automatically validate post-migration completion.

An automated data migration planning system comprising:

• a graphical user interface configured to enable at least one user to:
• create a new data migration project;
• identify migration team members, their roles, and their respective access privileges;
• initiate execution of a script configured to collect capacity and status information about server, storage, and switch components within a source infrastructure from which data migration is to be performed;
• generating a log file describing the server, storage, and switch components within the source infrastructure;
• receive a specification of at least one server, storage, and switch component of a destination infrastructure;
• and
• a logic module configured to:
• automatically determine a migration type in response to the capacity and status information about the server, storage, and switch components within the source infrastructure;
• automatically validate compatibility of the server, storage, and switch component of the destination infrastructure for data migration;
• automatically transmit notification regarding migration schedule to system end users;
• and
• automatically validate post-migration completion.
