You can use ndmpcopy, but it may chew up more data since ndmpcopy is a file-level transfer rather
than a block-level transfer.  But it's the same idea, transfer a snapshot, take a manual snapshot, lather, rinse,
repeat.

Subject: Migrating data from Trad vol to Flex vol

I have some data still in traditional volumes that I would like to move to flex vols. The problem is I have snapshot data that we are keeping for a few more years. So is QSM my only option or can ndmpcopy work with snapshots?

Has anyone had/seen anything similar? Your thoughts are appreciated.

Thanks,
