Hello,

I tried searching documentation without success.

Is it possible to convert a non snaplock aggregate to snaplock enterprise mode? (Running Ontap 9.1P9, two node bridge attached metrocluster)

Thank you 

Lorenzo

To expand on this - because of the non-reversible nature of Snaplock, disks need to specifically designated for snaplock at aggregate creation time. Once there is a snaplock aggr, data can be moved into it under most circumstances.
