Hi all,

I have an existing 740 (tornado) with two volumes - vol0 and users. I have a new 740 (tempest) with just vol0 and a qtree named "users". I want to copy all the user directories from torando:/vol/users to tempest:/vol/vol0/users in the easiest and quickest method possible. Both of the filers are connected via gig-ethernet to our main switch so using a filer-to-filer transfer would be the fastest.

Do any of you know if the "vol copy" command can be used in this case. Can I specify that the destination is actually a qtree?

The documentation for the vol command also says that the destination volume must be offline but that the root volume can't be taken offline. Is this a catch-22?

Thanks for the help!
