No I am not using SME with exchange. This aggregate is on a separate controller any only has our imaging files on it for records purposes. All of my other NFS traffic for my vmware servers, cifs, etc.. is on the other controller and separate aggregates, volumes. So once I pull the disks associated with that aggregate that has snaplock compliance on it and reboot will it then allow me to destroy that aggregate without any repercussions? I've never done anything like this so I'm just gathering as much knowledge from others who have done this. Thanks again for replying. I really appreciate it.
