Hi
I'm going to expand available size to a 980C with only 2 shelves filled with 14 72G FC disks
Customer buyed other 28 disks (144) to substitute the old 72.
I've only one third shelf available, temporarely.
As with the '3 card game' J which is the best way in your opinion to do this job? Could this be correct?
1. Disable cf
2. Attach the temporary shelf to one head, copy in it both 72G shelves content on two different volumes
3. Remove the 72 G disks from the 2nd head shelf and fill it with the 144 ones
4. Install Data Ontap on the 2nd head disks and boot it
5. Copy in this last the content saved at point 2
You can spare reinstall.
Disable cf
1. attach third shelf with new disks to one head 2. copy all data over from old head to new one 3. mark copy of root volume on new shelf as root; halt 4. remove old shelf
Now do the same steps for second head.

Hi Toasters,
It may be also worth getting a demo license of SnapMirror and using SnapMirror instead of doing a copy…
Kind regards,
Mike Nye
