Migrating from GCM 3.5.1 to VCS/CCA 4.0
Proposed path 28 April 2004
2
Background: Licensing structure of VCS, GCM, and CC Availability
GCM base license GCM DR option GCM SRDF agent GCM TrueCopy agent VCS 4.0 license VCS GC option VCS SRDF agent VCS TrueCopy agent CommandCentral 4.0 Management Server Cluster Monitor Per site Per cluster Per server that is replicating Per server Per managed node

Migration path for HA Clustering products: Licensing
For customers with valid support contracts for the products on the left, they are entitled to the products on the right… Out with the old… And in with the new… GCM base CommandCentral Availability 4.0 GCM DR option VCS 4.0 Global Cluster option GCM SRDF agent VCS 4.0 SRDF agent GCM TrueCopy agent VCS 4.0 TrueCopy agent Costs associated with consulting services is NOT part of the free migration entitlement.

Overview of License Migration
License migration is managed by Sales Ops. For complete information, please look here: License migration does not include consulting services or education. License entitlement could fluctuate, depending on the customer’s production environment, and exceptions will be handled on a case-by-case basis by Sales Ops. The following guidelines are subject to change.

Preliminary Guidelines of Entitlement
For each GCM base license that a customer has purchased, they will receive: 1 license for CommandCentral Availability Management Server 5 licenses for CommandCentral Availability Cluster Monitors For each GCM base license and GCM DR option that a customer has purchased, they will receive: 1 license of VCS 4.0 Global Cluster option for each server that is already part of the DR failover cluster (up to 32) For each GCM agent license for SRDF and Hitachi TrueCopy, they will receive: 1 license equivalent for the respective agent in the VCS 4.0 version

Migration path for HA Clustering products: Technologically
Installing VCS 4.0 with Global Cluster option VCS will automatically replace all the old GCM files with the new VCS Global Cluster option files Configuration and validation are still necessary to ensure proper cluster setup Installing CommandCentral Availability 4.0 CommandCentral Availability cannot reside on the same server as the GCM master CommandCentral Availability will be installed as a new product and won’t swap out any existing files
