Migration from SC8000 to SC5020
Hello,
I have a couple of questions please:
- Can I make a controller change in continuity of service from an SC8000 to an SC5020?
- Can I reuse SC400 drawers which are in an SC8000 in an SC5020?
Thanks in advance,
May

Hello May,
You can’t swap your controllers as your license for each system are on each controllers. SC5020 supports SC400 enclosures. Here is a link to DELL EMC SC SERIES
EXPANSION ENCLOSURES. https://dell.to/2APQsE7
Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Hello May,
You can use your SC400 on your SC5020. Since you want to keep the data intact you will need to migrate the data & volumes to your SC5020 so that when you connect your enclosures the data can be seen. You will need to contact support prior to doing this so that they can confirm that all setting are correct and that there will not be any issues with access your data or licenses.
Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Hello Sam,
Thanks for the reply.
So can I re-use the SC400 enclosure existing in SC8000 in the SC5020 with the same data?
