similar operation to rsync in netapp

Hi Team,

We have Netapp FAS 3220 8.1.4 7 mode. I want backup files to remote or another nfs server (remote server is Not Netapp BOx ) for recovery in case of failure. We use for this purpose rsync. But rync is not available in Netapp is there any other solution i can use in Netapp.

We have to netapp volume data to another NFS server.

I can mount netapp shared nfs mount another server and make them work using rsync but generally it will take much time.

I hope for this purpose net app has solution. If yes Please advice.

Thanks,

Hi Sagar,

I would suggest to use ndmp dump command to just dump the volume on to linux server destination, Refer to the KB below on how to use ndmp dump.

https://library.netapp.com/ecmdocs/ECMP1368865/html/GUID-1A25DDD6-DA7D-4F06-8204-547E83576956.html

If your environment has a backup tool i suggest you to configure NDMP backup which will make things easier.

Thanks,

Nayab
