Migrating a Celerra Tree Quota into a Celerra File System

I have run into the tree quota size limitation and need to migrate the tree quota into a file system. Can Celerra replicator or any other tool be used to move this data. I know Rsync can be used, but since the data is close to 4TB in size, it would take over 2 weeks to copy the data.

    No - Replicator works on complete file systems

    You could use ndmpcopy

    What DART version are you using?

    This size limit was increased in some versions

    Hi,

    Celerra Replicator would move the whole file system.

    To move only the tree quota, which is one directory, you can use server_archive ( which is an old tool, not very performatic ), or NDMPcopy.

    NDMPcopy has very good transfer rates, and support multiprotocol permissions. The only caveat is that it's a tool written on the top of a backup protocol, so the incremental copies does not purge the deleted files on the destination location.

    If you can put the source in read only, copy the data, and recreate the exports, NDMPcopy is nice.

    See https://community.emc.com/docs/DOC-7832.

    Hello ,

    We have to migrate the one of the tree quota (/FS1/treequota1 ) of the FS1 to FS2.

    Must appreciated if I can get commands to migrate the tree quota from FS1 to FS2 file-system.

    Thank you
