Pause vTree migration

You can pause a vTree migration at any time.

About this task

The following methods can be used to pause vTree migration:

  • Gracefully—allows all data blocks currently being migrated to finish migration before pausing.
  • Forcefully—stops the migration of all blocks currently in progress.
    CAUTION:The forceful method carries a potential risk of data loss.

Steps

  1. On the menu bar, click Block > Volumes.
  2. In the list of volumes, select the volume for which you want to pause migration.
  3. In the right pane, click View Details.
  4. In the left pane, click the VTree tab.
  5. In the left pane, from the VTree menu on the right, select Pause migration.
  6. In the Pause VTree Migration dialog box, select the required option:
    • Gracefully
    • Forcefully
  7. Click Pause Migration.
    If you selected to pause the migration gracefully, migration status is displayed. Once paused, you can choose to roll back the vTree migration, or resume the migration using the VTree menu.
  8. Verify that the operation has finished and was successful, and click Dismiss.
