I have to copy some Windows 2003 Server from one (older) EVA to another (newer) EVA.
Is there any tool to do this? I read some about "Business Copy EVA", the bad thing: we don't have this license between this EVA's.
Is there a tool such paragon partiton manager (which can deal with the QLogic HBA!!) to copy alle the data over the san? configure san to see both EVA's and copy from one partition to the other.
thx for help!!
Regards,
Oliver

Re: Copy Windows 2003 Server from one EVA to another
To replicate a vdisk from one EVA to the other the license needed is for Continous Access. You can install Command View 7 and it will give you a temporary license valid for 6 months. This will allow you to make a exact copy of a vdisk from one EVA to the other.
The other possibility is pressenting the vdisk on the old EVA and a blank vdisk of the same size on the new EVA to a host and use a cloning software to copy everything. You must be sure that it can handle disks connected through fiber.

SolutionI rather thought about something like like:
# dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb bs=65536
(make the destination disk as large as the source disk and let "dd" copy the partition table as well)
I have used this trick to copy some virtual disks containing VMware VMFS volumes between two EVAs, worked fine.
