Updating existing index location with data
So I understand that when adding a new Index location, the location should empty.
However, we will be migrating indexes to a different NetApp Filer. So the path for the indexes will change.
During this migration the indexes will be copied to the new location and only after that we will get the new paths.
In this case, we wont be able to add the Index location as it already has data in it and wont be able to update the SQL entries as per:

Is it possible to update these entries after the data is copied or do we have to update the new path before the copy starts.
Hi,
You can make the following operation for minimize the time without EV :
- Make a first copy of your EV Index in the new location
- Stop all EV services
- Make a robocopy of your EV Index in the new location for copy only the delta
- Use SQL Query for update the path
- Start all EV services
