Can a volume get moved into a Fabricpool aggregate with less size than volume?
Applies to
- ONTAP 9
- Fabricpool
- Volume Move
- Tiering-policy all
- Volume space-guarantee none or files
Answer
If the origin volume resides on a non-Fabricpool aggregate and has
space-guarantee set to none or files, then 10% of the origin-volume used-size must be available within the Fabricpool destination-aggregate performance-tier available-capacity and -tiering-policy all must be used during the vol move.Additional Information
If the origin volume used-size multiplied by 0.10 would exceed the destination aggregate performance-tier free-space, the volume move fails:
::> vol move start -vserver svm1 -volume vol_fp_moveme -destination-aggregate aggr4_fp -tiering-policy all
Error: command failed: There is 7.03TB of available space on the aggregate aggr4_fp which is not enough to accommodate a volume.
