Changing the destination device

Follow these steps to change the destination device.

About this task

While data evacuation is taking place, it might be necessary to change the destination device (for example, if hardware problems exist on the current one, or if it was incorrectly chosen). No straightforward way exists to change the destination device besides rolling back and starting a new evacuation.

Procedure

  1. Roll back evacuation per Rolling back a data evacuation.
  2. Wait for the evacuation to roll back. If it is necessary to stop the evacuation, reimage the original destination device (new source device). It stops the rollback.
  3. Start a new evacuation with the correct destination device.
