SOLVED: How to redirect a NDMP Lun restore
- 11 years ago
SOLVED:
OK guys, here's what I did in order to restore the RAW LUN to a different volume, and it worked perfectly:
1. Unmapped the currently active LUN ID
2. changed the volume and the LUN name (the qTree name cannot be changed).
3. created a new volume with same name as the original volume. Also created a new qTree under it with same name as original qtree.
3. Performed the restore. Under NDMP tab I made sure the Preserve Tree option is selected. No other special options selected.
4. After the restore I noticed a new LUN was created under the new volume and qtree that had the original name. The new LUN also had the original name.
That's it! Now I had the original volume/qTree/LUN (with the name changed) and the restored lun in the new volume I created.
Hope this'll help someone in the future :)
