Move Protection Manager SnapVault destination Volume

Hi,

IHAC who has several SnapVault secondary volumes. SnapVault is managed by Protection Manager. The destination aggregate is nearly 100% full and he wants to create a new aggregate and move 3 specific volumes into it.

How could this be accomplished with Protection Manager ?

Do I have to snapmirror the volumes into the new aggragte first, do a snapvault update -S and Protection Manager will recognize the changes ?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Thorsten

Hi Thorsten,

- create the new secondary volume in the new aggregate

[adai]yes

You must probably suspend the dataset so there is no conformance run or scheduled update.

- manually create a VSM relationship between secvol_old and secvol_new

[adai] yes

- quiesce and break the VSM relationship

[adai] yes. Also cleanup the vsm snapshot and snapmirror.conf entry.

- create a new snapvault relationship between prim_vol and secvol_new

[adai] yes but for each qtrees and do a snapvault start -r

- import it into protection manager

[adai] Yes this will work.But we don’t import the old backup version.

- delete the snapvault relationship between prim_vol and secvol_old

[adai] Yes. use snapvault stop.

- be happy...

Regards

adai
