Answer
- During a maintenance window, the tiering policy cannot be paused.
- Instead, the tiering policy could be modified to "
none
" during the maintenance window which would stop tiering:
::> volume modify -vserver svm_1 -volume volume_01 -tiering-policy none
- The changes can be reverted to its previous (or desired) state once the maintenance is done to resume tiering:
::> volume modify -vserver svm_1 -volume volume_01 -tiering-policy auto
