I am looking to get a feel for what people think is the best way to copy traditional volumes to flex volumes when I upgrade to 7G. Currently I SnapMirror my 960C production volumes and qtrees to a local R150 and a coop R150 located several hundred miles away. I know I need to update the R150 before upgrading the 960C. On my R150 I should have enough space to build a large aggregate to put multiple flex volumes in. I will be able to delete a couple of the traditional volumes to free up more disk once copied into the flex volume. I am leaning toward using ndmpcopy to copy the traditional copies to flex volumes. I'm not sure what performance/speed I will get out of using ndmp. I am open to suggestions if anyone has a better way of doing this. Thanks, Steve Pitts General Dynamics
