We are in the process of migrating data from our 7mode filers
(8.1.2P4 7-Mode) to our new CDOT filers (8.3.1P1), and we noticed that a few of
our 7mode volumes (NFS volumes) do not have the correct language set.
7mode documentation says I can change the language of a volume, however:
Note:
If you are changing the NFS character set, you are asked to confirm
your choice, and also whether you want to halt the system so that
WAFL_check can be run to check for any files that will no longer be
accessible using NFS. The default answer for this question is yes. If
you do not want to halt the system, you must enter n.
I'd
really prefer to not halt the filer. What are the ramifications of not
halting the filer? Can I safely change the language and snapmirror
over to the new filers without issue?
Thanks.
