Zusammenfassung:	A method, computer program product and apparatus are provided. For example, the method includes receiving, by a first data storage device within a storage area network, input output operations over a first network pathway within the storage area network. The method further includes receiving, by the first data storage device, a migration instruction that identifies a second data storage device within the storage area network and a source volume stored on the first data storage device. Still further, the method includes migrating, by the first data storage device, the source volume directly to the second data storage device over a second network pathway within the storage area network.
