Storage and network checklists

How to use these checklists

It's a good idea to photocopy the checklists on this page and the next page and fill them out as you go through the checks described earlier in this section.

STORAGE CHECKLIST

How much disk space is used on the source storage system's volumes? (See Step 1 of the Storage checks and actions.)

df of source storage system's volumes: ________________________________________

How much disk space is free on the destination storage system's volumes? (See Step 1 of the Storage checks and actions.)

df of destination storage system's volumes: _____________________________________

Have you added enough disks to the destination volumes, if necessary? (See Step 2 of the Storage checks and actions.)________

Do the path names of the source and destination volumes match? (See Step 4 of the Storage checks and actions.)_________

If you are managing qtree-based vFiler units, do any destination volume qtree names match those on the source volume? (See Step 6 of the Storage checks and actions.)________

Have you copied storage system-based quota information from the source to the destination storage system's /etc/quotas file, if necessary? (See Step 8 of the Storage checks and actions.)__________

NETWORK CHECKLIST

Are there enough IP addresses available for the vFiler unit on the destination network? (See Step 2 of the Network checks and actions.)

______________

old interface: _______________ new interface:_______________

Note
Check syntax carefully; interface names are case-sensitive.

Have you created the number of non-default IPspaces, if any are required? (See Step 4 of the Network checks and actions.)

Have you gathered all the authority servers? (See Step 5 through Step 10 of the Network checks and actions.)___________

old NIS domain: ____________ new NIS domain: ______________

old NIS IP addr:____________ new NIS IP addr:_ _____________

old NIS IP addr: ____________ new NIS IP addr:______________

old DNS domain:____________new DNS domain: _____________

old WINS IP addr: ___________ new WINS IP addr:_ ___________

old NT domain type: NT4 W2K

old domain name (FQDN and NetBIOS):_______________________

new NT domain type: NT4 W2K

new domain name (FQDN and NetBIOS):_______________________

Can you use the same trusted host for vFiler unit administration? (See Step 12 of the Network checks and actions.)_______

old trusted host name:_________new trusted host name:___________

What to do next

When you have finished the preparation by following the checklists listed in the previous sections, you are ready to create the destination vFiler unit.

If you are preparing a disaster-recovery vFiler unit, follow the directions under How to create, activate, or delete a disaster-recovery vFiler unit.
In this case, the original vFiler unit remains intact and running.
If you are moving a vFiler unit from one physical storage system to another, follow the directions under How to move (migrate) a vFiler unit.
In this case, the original vFiler unit is destroyed after it has been replicated on the destination storage system.
