PowerPath Migration Enabler
Nondisruptive data migration performance

EMC PowerPath Migration Enabler integrates with other technologies to eliminate application downtime during data migrations or virtualization implementations. The host-based PowerPath Migration Enabler works with EMC Open Replicator for Symmetrix to keep arrays in sync during data migrations, or with EMC TimeFinder/Clone to move data across tiers, with minimal impact to host resources. Additionally, PowerPath Migration Enabler Host Copy enables you to eliminate downtime by enabling non-disruptive data migrations through the host in heterogeneous environments, without the need for an underlying migration technology.
