Dell Unity™ Family VNX® Series Data Import to Unity All Flash or Hybrid, or UnityVSA™ System User Guide
Change settings of a CIFS-only VDM import
You can change some import settings before the import session starts or during an initial copy failed status. The changeable parameters include:
- Pools of the target file system
- Pool of the target NAS server
- Ports of the target production interfaces
- Mobility interface for import
- Name of import session
- SMB credentials used by the target system to connect to the source CIFS server.
NOTE: The import session name is not limited to an import session start or during an initial copy failed status and can be changed at any time.
The following changes on the source system are discouraged during an import session:
- Changes to Quota settings
- DNS, gateway, or routing changes
- Creating or deleting file systems
- File system level FLR properties (on either source or target systems) or epoch year on source file systems
- Settings of DHSM HTTP server configuration
NOTE: If the source system is configured with
auto delete or
auto lock enabled, the target system will not enable the respective option until the import session is committed. Also, if expired files exist on the source FLR file systems, after file import, the expired files remain expired. However, the time they expired is not the same as before. The expired time after file import is the time that the file was migrated.
The target system cannot prevent these actions on the source system. However, these actions can result in the changes not being imported to the target system and causing the import session to fail.
