Hello,

FAS 3320 ontap 7 mode with SAS disk, we have to move one volume from SAS to new SSD volume, how to move data one volume another volume without breaking snapvault and snapmirror relationship.

Please suggest any netapp tool or procedure without breaking relationship.

Regards

Depends on what you are using the volume for, if it's a lun the vol move command will do it. But if the volume has shares or NFS exports it won't.

It is easy to break a snapmirror and then re-establish it using resync (even if either volume has a different name or is on a different filer). Snapvault, it can be done too but it's not as easy and involves priv set diag / advanced commands.
