Clone split fails with error: Clone and the parent volumes are in different Vservers
Applies to
- ONTAP 9
- FlexClone
- NetApp Volume Encryption (NVE)
- NetApp Aggregate Encryption (NAE)
Issue
The clone split operation fails due to the parent and clone volumes being hosted in different vservers and using the same encryption key:
::> volume clone split start -vserver vserver1 -flexclone vol_flexclone1 -foreground true
Error: [Job 4382] Job failed: Clone and the parent volumes are in different Vservers, but are using the same Vserver level encryption-key. Vserver level encryption-key needs to be changed before the clone split. In order to change the Vserver level encryption-key, either do clone volume rekey or clone volume rehost
