I am getting ready to do a big data migration. I am planning on doing an initial level 0, and then multiple level 1's leading up to the big day.
I know the that native ndmpcopy in OnTap 7.1 can only do one level 1, and one level 2 for each level 0.
But I have read that if you get ndmpcopy or jnmdpcopy from ndmp.org that it supports multiple level 1 dumps based on the same level 0.
But I am getting the same errors I got with the native ndmpcopy when I use ndmpcopy and jndmpcopy from a unix host. I just grabbed the latest copies for ndmp.org yesterday.
java jndmpcopy.JNdmpcopy -version
java version "1.4.2" gcj (GCC) 3.4.6 20060404 (Red Hat 3.4.6-3)
So I did a level 0, and then one level 1 that both worked just fine. Then I re-ran the level 1 with the same command, and get the errors below. This is the same error I get if I try this with the native ndmpcopy command on the filer itself.
I am moving about 1TB of data (about 16M files) off of 1 traditional volume onto multiple new flex vols on the same filer. If what I'm doing is flat out wrong, what would others suggest ? tar wouldn't give me the incrementals and rsync would take a long time with this number of files.
Suggestions ?
Thanks, Paul
