Migrate Data From an Online Snapshot to a New Volume
If you are using an online, writable snapshot as an extent to an existing file system, it is recommended that you create a new volume and migrate the data from the snapshot to it.
- Create a new volume.
- Migrate the data from the online snapshot to the new volume.
- Connect the host to new volume.
- Verify that all data migrated successfully.
- Gracefully disconnect the initiators from online snapshot.
- Turn the snapshot offline and, if it is no longer needed, delete it.
