I recently moved 65gb from one filer to another using ndmpcopy. The first try was successful from an ndmpcopy standpoint, but I ran out of space on my target volume (duh!). However, succeeding tries were not successful - it crashed the *source* (production) filer. I see from a followup post that this is probably caused by the level of my dump... I also heard from netapp that this should be fixed in 5.01.
I was running 4.3.1 on the source filer and 5.1 on the target filer. Due to unforeseen circumstances (let's just say it wasn't pretty), this filer is now at 5.01. I plan to try a copy again.
By the way, we achieved about 6gb per hour on 100bT ethernet between 2 F630's.
