I'm trying to migrate a Netapp NFS filesystem to a VNX. Unfortunately, I have a small window of time to complete the migration (about 24 hours). Using rsync is problematic since the filesystem to be migrated consists of about 75 million inodes. Walking the filesystem tree takes way too long.
I see the VNX has the Celerra Data Migration Services (CDMS) utility, but I'm having trouble getting it to work.
I've read through all the documentation, but I keep getting the following error in server_log:
MGFS: 3: NFS V3: Error: lookupComp failed, nfs status 2
When I mount the VNX nfs export on a client, I am unable to see files from the Netapp NFS server. When ssh'd into the VNX, I can see the netapp NFS export mounted in a subdirectory of the VNX export (although changes are not visible after the source NFS server is mounted).
I would greatly appreciate it if someone could help me in getting CDMS to work as intended.
I would be glad to provide any and all additional details in helping troubleshoot this issue.
I have opened a service request with EMC support. It appears not many of the engineers are knowledgeable with CDMS. Would you be able to provide me a direct contact that may be able to provide support for this issue?

I could really use some help with getting CDMS to work. Is there perhaps a better forum to post this in?
