Really would be cool if volcopy and snapmirror could differentiate between used and un-used blocks and not require the copy of the un-used ones. =)
Actually, it would be more than cool. It would be very cool.

Kelly,
You are correct. Same size volumes.
NDMPCOPY is a way to achieve the goal, it is a utility available on NOW and it basically does a backup of one filer and restore to another (or the same filer) concurrently.

Hello all:
I think I know that answer to this one but I figured I would put it out here just to make sure I'm right.
I wanted to use snapmirror to migrate a volume to a different filer. This volume is 225Gigs but it only has 68Gigs of data on it. If I'm to use snapmirror to do this then I need to migrate it to a 225Gig volume correct? I wanted to shrink the volume while I was at it so I'm thinking I'm going to have to do it another way.
Has anybody had experience with this?
Thx
