Hi folks, I'm managing a 7-mode system (8.1) with a snapmirror destination of 35TB. I need to move it to a new aggregate on the same head. I really want avoid rebaselining from prod... I've tried a snapmirror cascaded off the normal destination, however it will likely take 4 days to complete using the internal loopback. While this is running, snapmirror scheduled updates to the normal destination volume don't run.

Do you mean that attempt to initiate update to destination fails?

I also tried a vol copy, but that seems to require you to keep a CLI session online for the whole transfer.

 

Once it is copied with snapshots to the new aggregate, I'm going to change the source in the snapmirror.conf file. Does anyone have any ideas about how I could move this?

Assuming you have sufficient bandwidth, you can do second copy from original source
