Snapmirror migration for luns from 7-mode to cDOT will be available in ONTAP 8.3 as far as I've heard. That would be about 6 months away.

That is what Mark is referring to, unless your comment refers to migrating from one cluster to another. You can not SnapMirror from 7-mode to cluster-mode (clustered Data ONTAP aka cDOT). There is a tool available
on
the support site called the 7-mode transition tool (7MTT). This does
leverage
SnapMirror between the two versions but only for the purpose of migration and currently only for file data (CIFS,NFS) not block (FC,iSCSI,etc).
There is an
appliance used to move block data called a DTA.

Ah, now I understand. and it makes perfect sense. In this situation, we'd probably just snapmirror the data to the new cluster and start from semi-scratch.
