Define a Volume Management policy based on an existing policy

You can define a new volume management (VM) or hierarchical storage management (HSM) migration policy based on an existing policy. Use this method when you want to create a migration policy similar to an existing one. Procedure Open the Volume Management view. Select an existing migration policy from the Policies tree. Click the Definition tab. The selected migration policy settings appear. Type a new name for the migration policy in the Policy Name box. If you create both VM and HSM migration policies at your site, implementing a naming convention that differentiates between the two types simplifies managing your policies from the Policies tree after the policies are created. Type a new description of the migration policy in the Policy Description box. Modify the remaining settings as desired. After you finish defining the data to be migrated, click Modify at the bottom of the pane to create the migration policy. The migration policy appears under the Policies tree. Results After one or more migration policies are defined, you can preview the results of the migration, then migrate the data.
