Hello @Yousuf_N,

In MSA, it is not possible to migrate from one raid level to another!!

You must create a new RAID6 Vdisks and then migrate data from old R10 to new R6.

EVA and 3par supports RAID migration.

You need to map the R6 vdisk to the same host as R10 and then copy the data.

However if you are connecting the new R6 vdisk to different host then you need to perform host based migration.
