2.4 IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node hardware
The IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node solution is a modular storage system that is built
to interface and reside within the IBM Flex System Enterprise Chassis. When sold in the IBM
PureFlex system it will come with a four port FC host interface card (HIC) preinstalled in it and
configured to the FC switch(s) in the Flex Enterprise Chassis. For the “Build to Order” (BTO)
solutions you can select the configuration of the interface capability you require for your
specific environment.

Migration: If the IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node is used as a general migration
tool, then the appropriate External Virtualization licenses must be ordered. The only
exception is if you want to migrate existing data from external storage to IBM Flex System
V7000 Storage Node permanently managed storage; you can temporarily configure your
External Storage license for use up to 45 days. For a more-than-45-day migration
requirement from external storage to the IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node the
appropriate External Virtualization license must be ordered.
