Girish,  Yes, you can do this, but you'll still need to zone/mask the remote devices to the host-visible FAs as well as the dedicated FAs. You can set a 0 ceiling on the host-visible FAs and a 100 ceiling on the dedicated FAs, and that will send the background copy traffic to the dedicated FAs. Just keep in mind there will still be CopyOnFirstWrite traffic that will go over the host-visible FAs -- COFW ignores the ceiling/pace settings.  Thanks,  - Sean   Sent from my iPhone
Hi, IHAC that is planning to migrate hundreds of servers to VMAX from DMXs. One proposed solution is to migrate data using OR hot-push. Can we use dedicated non-host-visible FA ports for OR hot-push, map the source devices to them and set ceiling to 100% thus making sure that host-visible FA ports are not impacted ? Has anyone done this before this way ? Thanks, Girish
