Answer

Beginning with ONTAP 9.8, you can trigger a tiering scan request at any time when you prefer not to wait for the default tiering scan.

Use the volume object-store command with the trigger option to request migration and tiering.

volume object-store tiering trigger [ -vserver <vserver name> ] *VServer Name [-volume] <volume name> *Volume Name

Example:

::> volume object-store tiering show
                                                  Policy
Vserver Volume Aggregate State   %Complete  Tiering   CloudRetrieve LastStatus
------- ------ --------- -------- --------- --------- ------------- ----------
svm1    siva   fpaggr    active         35% all       default       completed

        myvol   fpaggr    waiting          - auto      default       completed

2 entries were displayed.

::> volume object-store tiering trigger -vserver svm1 -volume myvol

Additional Information

The command volume object-store tiering trigger does not immediately start the tiering if there are active tiering already running. This command will put the volume up in the queue for the next tiering scan.
