Abstract
Described embodiments provide systems and processes for performing data migration in a storage system. One or more consistency groups are migrated from at least one source device to at least one target device in the storage system. The consistency groups are replicated from the source device to the target device by an asynchronous data replication operation from the source device to the target device and one or more synchronous data replication operations from the source device to the target device if data stored on the source device is changed. The consistency groups are operated on the source device and the target device in an active-active mode, wherein the source device and target device are active and accessible by host devices. Replicated consistency groups are determined to include in a cutover operation that is performed by deactivating the at least one source device associated with the included consistency groups.
