FREE Tool from NetApp makes Data Migrations a Breeze

One of the final steps of building DatacenterDude's Datacenter was standing up a new surprise storage system and consolidating all of my various datasets and doing some big migrations. The biggest of those was in excess of 50TB, so I needed something bigger/better/stronger/faster than the typical tools. Luckily, a free tool from NetApp rode in on a stallion to save the day.

[Bigbosss]

I have have data in some windows LUN and and want to move it to another LUN with all permission and attribute, can i do it ?

[ronbrinker]

If you have a CIFS copy that fails because the destination ran out of space, do you use another "xcp copy" command to resume, or do you have to switch to "xcp sync" to get it to pick up where it let off? When I use back to back "xcp copy" in this instance, it seems like it restarts from the beginning. Using xcp 1.9.3.

What about migrating SAN volumes from Storage to another 3rd Party Storage Array?

[prometheusjp]

You say you don't have to be a netapp customer but you can't use it without a License file and you can't get a license file without being a customer. Is there a way around that?

[jaimelasalle]

You didn't show how to install clearly. The tool seems great but there is nothing out there for installing it correctly.
