thanks Jeff,

The -mode check just completed - took 45 minutes - sysstat -x 1 did not show any increase 

Upgrading a volume to 64-bit consumes additional free space in the volume. The
following table shows the space usage after each volume is upgraded to 64-bit:

Volume Name             Total          Used           Available      Capacity
-----------             -----          ----           ---------      --------
 vol0                   300GB          73GB           226GB          24%
 fcappdata              1536GB         688GB          847GB          44%
 backup                 20GB           4210MB         15GB           20%
 backup1                3660GB         1941GB         1719GB         53%
 backup2                60GB           45GB           14GB           75%
 appdata                2252GB         1986GB         266GB          88%
 irtdev                 70GB           56GB           13GB           80%
 vm65                   3481GB         3193GB         288GB          91%
 devapp1                30GB           2112MB         27GB           6%

I might grow the vm65 volume before attempting the grow-all

thanks

I did it on a NearStore running 8.1.  It worked fine.  I didn't really
keep track of how long it took since it did it in the background.

Again in the position where my source aggregate is 32 bit and destination is
64 bit and this prevents vfiler online migration.

Last year this was a priv set diag command

aggr 64bit-upgrade start aggr1 -mode grow-all

http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/netapp/toasters/11820

In test mode, this completed the 64 bit upgrade quickly and without error.

Anyone done this in production? (Ontap 8.1)

thanks
