NetApp® XCP Migration Tool

Issue

NetApp® XCP Migration Tool supports a flag -nodata to prevent the inspection of all file bytes during sync. This provides less I/O and network intensive sync, providing quicker sync times. For some datasets, this can result in data going unsynched. Unless you know that your dataset will not be affected, you should avoid use of the -nodata flag unless using an unaffected version of NetApp XCP Migration Tool..
