Applies to

  • ONTAP 9
  • SnapLock (Compliance / Enterprise)

Answer

  • No. It is not supported to change a non-SnapLock volume to SnapLock and vice-versa.
  • This feature must be set during the volume creation.
  • You must use the -snaplock-type option to explicitly create a SnapLock volume by specifying either Compliance or Enterprise as the SnapLock type. By default, the SnapLock type is set to non-snaplock.
