Guys,

I am planning to use VDM to migrate the CIFS server from one Celerra to another in the same domain. The problem though is that VDM migration requires Filesystem to be migrated with the CIFS server and we have some filesystems that are shared by multiple CIFS servers. If i migrate this filesystem along with one of the CIFS servers using VDM, other CIFS servers will lose access to this filesystem after cutover because it will become read-only at source after cut-over. How do i workaround this?.

Is it possible to do the following:

After the VDM cutover is complete, the destination filesystem becomes read/write and the source filesystem will still be there in the source celerra as read-only. Can i make it read/write, so that the CIFS servers that are not migrated from the source can still access the filesystem at source?.

Thanks all.
