'''Managing NetApp Volumes'''

==Application Purpose and Scope==

This document covers the management of volume size on NetApp filers

----
==NetApp OnTap 7.X (7-mode systems)==

The older systems running OnTap 7.x. This section will cover managing volumes on this version of the OS.

===Adding space===

====Log into the (source) NetApp ====

admin$ ssh netapp-filer1
admin@netapp-filer1's password:

netapp-filer1>

====Verify the volume size that you wish to increase====

netapp-filer1> df -h vol2
Filesystem total used avail capacity Mounted on
/vol/vol2/ 42GB 41GB 60KB 100% /vol/vol2/
/vol/vol2/.snapshot 14GB 5394MB 8941MB 38% /vol/vol2/.snapshot
netapp-filer1>

====Add space====

netapp-filer1> vol size vol2 +10G
vol size: Flexible volume 'vol2' size set to 66g.
netapp-filer1>

====Verify Space has been added====

netapp-filer1> df -h vol2
Filesystem total used avail capacity Mounted on
/vol/vol2/ 49GB 41GB 7762MB 85% /vol/vol2/
/vol/vol2/.snapshot 16GB 5435MB 11GB 32% /vol/vol2/.snapshot
netapp-filer1>

====Verify SnapMirror status====

netapp-filer1> snapmirror status netapp-filer1:vol2
Snapmirror is on.
Source Destination State Lag Status
netapp-filer1:vol2 netapp-filer2:vol5 Source 00:02:39 Idle

====Exit NetApp management console====

netapp-filer1> exit
Use control-D to exit
netapp-filer1> Connection to netapp-filer1 closed by remote host.
Connection to netapp-filer1 closed.

'''Note: If SnapMirror is not active on this volume, you can stop here.'''

====Log into the (destination) NetApp====

admin$ ssh netapp-filer2
admin@netapp-filer2's password:

netapp-filer2>

====Verify SnapMirror destination volume to increase====

netapp-filer2> df -h vol5
Filesystem total used avail capacity Mounted on
/vol/vol5/ 42GB 41GB 60KB 100% /vol/vol5/
/vol/vol5/.snapshot 14GB 5394MB 8941MB 38% /vol/vol5/.snapshot
netapp-filer2>

====Quiesce the SnapMirror destination volume====

netapp-filer2> snapmirror quiesce vol5
snapmirror quiesce: in progress
This can be a long-running operation. Use Control - C (^C) to interrupt.
snapmirror quiesce: vol5 : Successfully quiesced
netapp-filer2>

====Break the SnapMirror volume====

netapp-filer2> snapmirror break vol5
snapmirror break: Destination vol5 is now writable.
Volume size is being retained for potential snapmirror resync. If you would like to grow the volume and do not expect to
resync, set vol option fs_size_fixed to off.
netapp-filer2>

====Change options on SnapMirror destination volume====

netapp-filer2> vol options vol5 fs_size_fixed off

Wed Aug 29 11:45:49 MDT [wafl.vv.set.size:warning]: Setting volume size for vol5 to match nominal size.
netapp-filer2>

====Add same amount of space to SnapMirror destination volume====

netapp-filer2> vol size vol5 +10g
vol size: Flexible volume 'vol5' size set to 76g.
netapp-filer2>

====Verify the space has been added to teh SnapMirror destination volume====

netapp-filer2> df -h vol5
Filesystem total used avail capacity Mounted on
/vol/vol5/ 49GB 41GB 7762MB 85% /vol/vol5/
/vol/vol5/.snapshot 16GB 5435MB 11GB 32% /vol/vol5/.snapshot
netapp-filer2>

====Resync SnapMirror destination volume====

netapp-filer2> snapmirror resync vol5
The resync base snapshot will be: netapp-filer2(0135107210)_vol5.85164
These older snapshots have already been deleted from the source and will be deleted from the destination:
netapp-filer2(0135107210)_vol5.85163
Are you sure you want to resync the volume? y
Wed Aug 29 11:46:35 MDT [snapmirror.dst.resync.info:notice]: SnapMirror resync of vol5 to netapp-filer1:vol2 is using
netapp-filer2(0135107210)_vol5.85164 as the base snapshot.
Volume vol5 will be briefly unavailable before coming back online.
Wed Aug 29 11:46:36 MDT [wafl.snaprestore.revert:notice]: Reverting volume vol5 to a previous snapshot.
Revert to resync base snapshot was successful.
Wed Aug 29 11:46:37 MDT [replication.dst.resync.success:notice]: SnapMirror resync of vol5 to netapp-filer1:vol2 was
successful.
Transfer started.
Monitor progress with 'snapmirror status' or the snapmirror log.
