Space needed to migrate a disk

The MigrateDatasourceDataFromDPM script can have many formats one of which is to migrate a source disk to a target disk or array of disks. How much space do you need to migrate? You need at least as much as the source disk size of course but what if 1 or more volumes span to another disk? Take the sample below; you have Disk-1 and Disk-2 (both 750GB) with 4 volumes, note that volume V3 (green) spans Disk-1 and Disk-2.



If you want to migrate Disk-1 you have to migrate V1, V2 and all of V3 which totals to more than the size of Disk-1. Given possible spanning scenarios this is more challenging than you might expect. If all involved volumes are replica volumes it is fairly straight forward (“Get-DPMdisk” gives you all replicas) but if 1 or more are recovery point volumes it becomes a different ballgame. The script below figures that out and the synopsis explains how it does that.



#begin script

param([string] $global:Debug)
# SYNOPSIS
# We first get lists we need to select from and reference against
# Feed all DPM disks to  GetMigSizeByDisk()
# GetMigSizebyDisk()
#        walk all PGmembers on given disk
#        need to check if recovery point volumes are on same disk (PGmember[] are only replicas)
#        get recovery point volume from volume-list by VolumesetId (from member) and size not equal to replica
#        get recovery point extents from extents-list and see if any DiskId matches current disk identifier
#        when it does, we need to account for replica + shadowcopyarea sizes else just replica
#        next member until all members on disk done
#        return total size
