If you have a SnapMirror license, I would do a qtree
snapmirror. Set up an incremental schedule, say once an
hour.
Then when you're ready to cut the clients over, you'd only
move an hour's worth of changes over which should be
quick.

Hello experts,
I am very new to the netapp world. Sorry if
this has been answered already or if it sounds stupid.I have the following
situation,
What we have is a FAS940 with DS14MK2
shelves(3nos).
There is a qtree "proj-CFD" which is 200GB in size and the
containing volume is 500GB. The volume is 90% full. I have been asked to
increase the space for the qtree to 400GB. Previous admin created the
aggregate(Aggr1) with a raidsize of 8 and there are two raidgroups with 8disks
in each raidgroup.
I have three spares and adding these to the current
aggregate would create another raidgroup of 3 disks and i will be left with 1
usable disk (we have raid_dp) and also i will have no spares left.
But
fortunately there is another aggregate(Aggr2) with a raidsize of 16 and there
are 14 disks in that aggregate now. Now my question is, how can move the
"proj-CFD" qtree to a volume in Aggr2 with minimum downtime and keeping all the
ACLs intact(It is ntfs only).
Thanks
