Starting a vdisk
Starting a vdisk is part of the process for moving a secondary volume from a primary system into a
secondary system. The process to move a secondary volume is:
1.
In the primary system:
a. Detach the secondary volume. For details see
b. If the secondary volume's vdisk contains other secondary volumes, detach those volumes.
c. Stop the secondary volume's vdisk. For details see
d. If the secondary volumes' snap pools are in other vdisks, stop those vdisks.
e. Move the vdisks into the secondary system.
2.
In the secondary system:
a. Start the snap pools' vdisks.
b. Start the secondary volumes' vdisks.

NOTE:
If the replication set was deleted while the secondary volume's vdisk was stopped, restarting the
vdisk will make the set partially reappear. To clean up this remnant, reattach the secondary volume, set it to
be the primary volume (by using the Set Replication Primary Volume panel on page 1 17), and then delete
the replication set again.
Reattaching a secondary volume
Reattaching a secondary volume is the last part of the process for moving a secondary volume from a
primary system into a secondary system. The process to move a secondary volume is:
1.
In the primary system:
a. Detach the secondary volume. For details see
b. If the secondary volume's vdisk contains other secondary volumes, detach those volumes.
c. Stop the secondary volume's vdisk. For details see
d. If the secondary volumes' snap pools are in other vdisks, stop those vdisks.
e. Move the vdisks into the secondary system.
2.
In the secondary system:
a. Start the snap pools' vdisks. For details see
b. Start the secondary volumes' vdisks.
c. Reattach the secondary volumes.
