Part 6) Method 3: Using 7MTT CLI Commands to Migrate Our 7 to 7 SnapMirror Relationship

We revert the lab to the state at the end of Part 3.

Instead of using the 7MTT CLI Wizard Menu System, we can run 7MTT CLI commands.

Running Pre-Checks

Using prior experience:
1) Disable the Windows Firewall on MSADM1
2) On NAFAS1>
options snapmirror.access host=NAFAS2,10.10.10.121,10.10.10.221

transition precheck -s NAFAS2toNASVM2
transition precheck -s NAFAS1toNASVM1

Starting Data Copy for a Transition Session

transition start -s NAFAS2toNASVM2
transition job-results -j ba797928-4387-4bdb-b1e5-222724fd21f0
transition job-status -j ba797928-4387-4bdb-b1e5-222724fd21f0

transition job-status -j e02f626d-e664-446d-b079-acf19b755040

Completing the transition of the Secondary

transition complete -s NAFAS2toNASVM2
transition job-results -j c75119fe-7d62-4b82-98ae-1e1f2b5ebe60

Completing the transition of the Primary

MSADM1: Disconnect from Shares

net use U: /delete

transition job-results -j 07c05b41-e877-4c08-8fc5-ca7555520d7f

MSDMC1: Update CNAME

Update the CNAME FS1 (which pointed to NANAS1.lab.priv) to point to NASVM1.lab.priv.

MSADM1: Reconnect to Shares

ipconfig /flushdns
net use U: \\FS1\share1 /persistent:yes
net use V: \\FS1\share2 /persistent:yes
net use W: \\FS1\share3 /persistent:yes

And verify data availability!

JOB DONE!

And C to C SnapMirrors are in place...
