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
