Answer

To move an ONTAP cluster system to a different location, follow these steps:
  1. Record the output of the following commands:
Cluster::> cluster peer health show
Cluster::> cluster peer connection show
Cluster::> cluster peer show
Cluster::> network interface show
Cluster::> snapmirror show
  1. Abort and quiesce all SnapMirror relationships:
Cluster::> snapmirror abort
Cluster::> snapmirror quiesce
  1. Gracefully shut down all ONTAP nodes in the cluster.
  2. Physically relocate the cluster to the new location.
  3. Power up all ONTAP nodes in the cluster.
  4. Verify that the configuration matches the pre-move state by running the following commands:
Cluster::> cluster peer health show
Cluster::> cluster peer connection show
Cluster::> cluster peer show
Cluster::> network interface show
  1. Resume and update all SnapMirror relationships:
Cluster::> snapmirror resume
Cluster::> snapmirror update
