HI,
One way of migrating a volume from one filer to another is:
If you are using MEI product DFM, then you can use the space management wizard from NMC to migrate the volume from aggr of one filer to aggr of another filer.
But you will have to remove the exports or LUN maps before doing this.
Here in this example my source filer is sin and destination filer is seawasp:
