You could do the data move with "Continuous Access EVA", which is an array-based data replication feature.

However, if you are not familiar with CA-EVA, I strongly recommend to get help from a *local* provider. Quite a number of ITRC members are certainly qualified, but we simply lack the detailed knowledge about your configuration. The migration takes quite some planning and preparation or your cluster could end up in a big mess.

For example, you need a *complete* and *current* hard-/software inventory of your environment.
