We currently have a 3 node Powerstore cluster deployed and we are looking to leverage the internal Powerstore cluster data migration to move a volume and all of the volume snapshots between arrays in the Powerstore cluster.

As these snapshots were taking by CV IntelliSnap and not committed to the Isilon were we keep backups yet can we still go ahead with the migration and well not break anything?

I can’t find anything in the documentation that can support this question either way, but any feedback would be awesome!

Hello @Mike Granito 

Commvault are the coordinator when it comes to snap management and in the CSDB we just have a pointer to the location of the snap. 

I suspect when you move the snaps that location in the CSDB will be a broken link and restores wont work. 


I recommend a support ticket before you start the work as i suspect Dev will need to script something to update these pointers before the move.

 

Kind regards

Albert Williams
