After setting cloud-retrieval-policy to promote, we still see data in Cloud tier
Applies to
- ONTAP 9
- FabricPool
Issue
- Followed the steps in the KB "How to move the data from capacity tier to performance tier in FabricPool" and set tiering policy to none for the volume and cloud-retrieval-policy to promote.
- However on the cloud tier(StorageGrid), we still see data present.
- Volume footprint shows no details for cloud tier.
