7MTT and vFiler Consolidation: Part 1/3 Intro

In the following 3 part posting, we migrate 3 vFilers into one Storage Virtual Machine (SVM).

Part 1) Introduction and Setting up vFiler0 (the pFiler) and 2 vFilers

Part 2) Migrating the 7-Mode vFilers to just one SVM in Clustered Data ONTAP
Part 3) Outputs from the SVM after the Migration is Complete

Part 1) Introduction and Setting up vFiler0 (the pFiler) and 2 vFilers

In the following series, we migrate a vFiler0 (the pFiler), and two vFilers (n7a01_v1 and n7a01_v2) to Clustered Data ONTAP and one Storage Virtual Machine - NASVM1.

Image: Migration Scenario - vFiler Consolidation

Our 7-Mode system is running Data ONTAP 8.1.2P4.

Our Clustered ONTAP system is running 8.2.1.

vfiler0 is already licensed for CIFS and NFS, with cifs setup already run.

vol0 security setting  is unix, so all volumes inherit this setting.

Enable Multistore

options licensed_feature.multistore.enable on

Create the vFilers

qtree create /vol/vol0/n7a01_v1_vol0

qtree create /vol/vol0/n7a01_v2_vol0

vfiler create n7a01_v1 -n -s default-ipspace -i 10.10.10.103 /vol/vol0/n7a01_v1_vol0

vfiler create n7a01_v2 -n -s default-ipspace -i 10.10.10.105 /vol/vol0/n7a01_v2_vol0

Create Volumes

vol create test01 -s none aggr1 2g

vol create test02 -s none aggr1 2g

vol create test03 -s none aggr1 2g

vol create test11 -s none aggr1 2g

vol create test12 -s none aggr1 2g

vol create test13 -s none aggr1 2g

vol create test21 -s none aggr1 2g

vol create test22 -s none aggr1 2g

vol create test23 -s none aggr1 2g

Setup the vFilers

vfiler add n7a01_v1 /vol/test11 /vol/test12 /vol/test13

vfiler allow n7a01_v1 proto=cifs proto=http proto=nfs

vfiler add n7a01_v2 /vol/test21 /vol/test22 /vol/test23

vfiler allow n7a01_v2 proto=cifs proto=http proto=nfs

vfiler run n7a01_v1 setup

vfiler run n7a01_v2 setup

vfiler run n7a01_v1 options security.passwd.rules.history 0

vfiler run n7a01_v2 options security.passwd.rules.history 0

vfiler run n7a01_v1 cifs setup

vfiler run n7a01_v2 cifs setup
