Moving FlexVol volumes
You can nondisruptively move a FlexVol volume to a different aggregate or a different node for capacity utilization and improved performance by using Storage Manager.
Before you begin
If you are moving a data protection volume, data protection mirror relationships must be initialized before you move the volume.
About this task
When you move a volume that is hosted on a Flash Pool aggregate, only the data that is stored in the HDD tier is moved to the destination aggregate.
The cached data that is associated with the volume is not moved to the destination aggregate. Therefore, some performance degradation might occur after the volume move.
You cannot move volumes from a SnapLock aggregate.
You cannot move volumes from an SVM that is configured for disaster recovery to a FabricPool-enabled aggregate.
