SnapManager Migration Guide to SnapCenter

TMADOCTHOMAS — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 14:07:37 GMT

There is a SnapManager Migration Guide available for SnapCenter 1.1:

https://library.netapp.com/ecm/ecm_download_file/ECMLP2440302

However, i cannot find an updated one for version 4.0. All I can find is the "Importing Data from SnapManager to SnapCenter" guide which just describes importing backups archived using SnapVault (we use SnapMirror so this doesn't apply to us).

Any suggestions? Does anyone know if a 4.0 version is on the way? Does the 1.1 procedure still work in 4.0?

This is actually covered in SnapCenter 4.0 under a different guide name: Importing Data from SnapManager to SnapCenter

Refer guide here:

For VMware workload, this is covered under heading "Migrating VSC hosts" as part of the "Installation and Setup Guide"

Refer guide here:

There is also an import utility for migrating VSC (SMVI) workload to SCV and VSC released called: NetApp Import Utility for SnapCenter and Virtual Storage Console

SCV-VSC-Import-README.pdf covers all the necessary details bundled along with the zip file.
