Isilon to Isilon Migration

[cibin....@gmail.com]

Hi Team,

It would be great help if anybody provide the procedure to migrate the workloads from a Isilon Gen 6 to another Isilon Gen 6 in another DC. 

Thanks,

That's the easiest part: you make sure there is network connectivity, then you create a synciq policy and let her run.

When finished they are identical as contents, excpet for the differences. 

You run the policy again and you're ( almost ) done.

While the policy is running you prepare everything else ( access zones, share and so on ) 

When you are ready you disalble all the shares and access zone so the data cannot be modified, you run the synciq policy for the last time and you start access zone and share on the other DC.

these are good for a genearal isilon1 at site-1 to isilon2 at site-2  

list out all smb shares

list out all nfs shares

find path for these

create synciq policy for each of them.

ensure synciq is completed.

stop and delete sync iq.

recreate smb share & nfs share on target cluster.

These steps will change if there are , multiple access zones, multiple authentications, or multi protocols. 

or if you are planning to migrate from one site 1 to site 2,  and replicate sync to 3rd site.
