Hi Rene,

here is how i would do it...i suppose this to work

1) copy data from vol0 to vol1

2) cifs shares -delete Share_Name$

3) shut down clients with lun's

4) lun unmap /vol/vol0/lun.lun igroup_host

5) update copy

6) vol offline vol0

7) vol rename vol0 vol0_old

8) vol rename vol1 vol0

9) cifs shares -add name$ /vol/vol0

10) lun map /vol/vol0/lun.lun igroup_host 2

But i really do not understand what was wrong with your cifs and lun copying....

If you do not want to spend all night in the datacenter you can try with the Ontap Simulator. It is free and can be downloaded from NOW.

It is great for testing purpose!!

Regards and good luck for your next attempt

Jochen

Subject: Re: moving data from trad -> flex vols

Hello Toasters,

well, the root vol now moved to the new DS14 flex-vol.

But this night I tried to move the data (shares / lun's / exports) from the old /vol/vol0 (trad)
via "ndmpcopy -l 0 /vol/vol0 /vol/vol1" and some hour later, "ndmpcopy -l 0 /vol/vol0 /vol/vol1".

Everthing was copied. All Clients where offline, and than I renamed /vol/vol0 -> /vol/vol0old
and /vol/vol1 /vol/vol0. Because I thought than after the reboot all shares and luns and
nfs-exports are back on /vol/vol0 but now on the new DS14.

Well I failed, I found out that the vol rename also renamed the CIFS Shares Paths and
also the LUN paths. So the CIFS clients where still reading from the old FC9 (/vol/vol0old now)
and the iSCSI clients where too. Because I did't terminate CIFS and NFS and iSCSI.
To be honest, cool renaming feature to prevent stupid germans from losing data ;-)

So, I though be smart forget about the LUNs, they are fine, care about the shares.
"CIFS terminate" and replace vol0old -> vol0 in the /etc/cifsconfig_share.cfg.
"CIFS restart".
"Year! I am the master !" But I was too stupid again. Because now my CIFS Clients
got the shares but they could not see any data. And I got no idea why!

So I "vol rename vol0 vol1"
and "vol rename vol0old vol0"

And now the CIFS clients connect back to their shares on the old FC9 again.

So whats wrong about my proceedings?
And the second question to save time, how to I move the iSCSI LUNs
to the new volume?

Thanks,

Rene

If you are using SecureAdmin/Secure FilerView/SSL, you need to restart the secureadmin
services when you cross the 7.x line.  There was a major code change starting in 7.0
and the service must be manually restarted (a reboot won't do it).

Start here for docs:

Subject: moving data from trad -> flex vols

Hello,

we are running an FAS920 with FC9 shelfs with data and new empty DS14 shelfs.
On the FC9 we got one volume /vol/vol0 with root and data on it.

Last week we upgraded from ONTAP 6.5.6 to 7.2.1 without problems.

Now we want to move our data to the DS14 shelfs. We created one aggr1 with lots of drives. After that we created two new flex vols - /vol/root
(20GB) and
an /vol/vol1 (1TB) for the data.

We copied the root data with no clients on the filer with "ndmpcopy -l0 /vol/vol0/etc /vol/root/etc".

Worked fine in 7 minutes. Than we change the booting volume with "vol options /vol/root root".
Booting from it, no problem -but now by requsting http://filer-ip/na_admin just the first page came and we were not able to start the FilerView Web-App.

So so we switch the root vol again with "vol options /vol/vol0 root" and FilerView works fine.

In the message file we found that one:
Sat Feb 3 09:16:09 CET [httpd.socket.listener.create:error]: HTTPS Initialization failure; could not create listener socket.
Nothing else.

Can anybody help?

Thanks,

René
