Economical Solutions for Migrating File Services From Microsoft Windows File Servers to HP StorageWorks NAS

Overview This document outlines the primary issues involved and the methods available when migrating file services and associated data from legacy Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 File Servers to HP StorageWorks NAS. The discussion primarily focuses on migration solutions that apply to relatively simple environments that involve only a few servers and a modest amount of data. These solutions will be of most interest to smaller companies that are interested in simple, inexpensive tools to satisfy their migration needs.
