Note: In order to preserve the data that is on the units attached to the 8000, you will need to run a special utility to convert the units to a format that the 9000 controller can use. Contact Technical Support to obtain the utility. (This utility is not required for legacy JBOD units.)
Do not remove the 8000 board from your system until you have converted the units. The units must be attached to the 8000 controller when you run the utility.
