Abstract

Described are techniques for migrating data from a source device of a source data storage system to a target device of a target data storage system. The target data storage system is configured to operate in accordance with a spoofing mode and a pass-through mode. A first set of commands from the host are processed for the target device when in the pass-through mode and the spoofing mode with respect to the target device. Data is migrated from the source device to the target device. The target data storage system is configured to operate in an echo mode for the target device and processes a second set of commands from the host when in the echo mode for the target device using information stored in the cache from processing the first set of commands.
