Pause vTree migration

You can pause a vTree migration at any time.

About this task

The following ways are used to pause the vTree migration:
  • Gracefully: To allow all data blocks currently being migrated to finish migration before pausing.
  • Forcefully: To abort the migration of all blocks currently in progress and carries a potential risk to data.

Steps

  1. From the PowerFlex GUI, in the left pane, click Protection > Snapshots.
  2. In the right pane, select the relevant volume check box, and then in the Details pane, click the vTree tab.
  3. Click the vTree button and select Pause migration.
  4. In the Volume <volume name> Pause VTree Migration dialog box, select whether you want to pause gracefully or forcefully and click Pause Migration.
    If you selected to pause the migration gracefully, the migration icon is colored blue until the migration pauses successfully. A gray migration icon indicates that the migration is paused. Once paused, you can choose to roll back the vTree migration or resume the vTree migration from the Command menu.
  5. Verify that the operation completed successfully and click Dismiss.

Results

Volume migration is paused. Once paused, you can choose to roll back the vTree migration or resume the vTree migration from the vTree menu.
