Go to SolutionSteps to go from VPLEX metro to VPLEX local
He Guys,
I have a running SQL cluster in one datacenter, which has been given Vplex Metro volumes, now the request is to transform these volumes to Vplex Local volumes ( as there is no requirment for Metro Volumes ).
- Can this be done on the fly ( without losing the data )
- Which steps are needed.
Thanks,
Ferry

Accomplished on the fly no data loss
Step One:Detach one leg of the Distributed Device using the "device detach-mirror" command
Step Two:
Collapse the remaining Top Level device with the "device collapse" command
