Abstract

A method, computer program product, and computing system for compartmentalizing a LUN into a plurality of portions that are each assigned to one or more hosts. The occurrence of a migration event in which an application being executed on a first host is being migrated to second host may be detected. Any portions within the LUN that are assigned to the application being executed on the first host may be identified, thus generating one or more identified portions. The one or more identified portions may be reassigned to the second host.
