Enabling or disabling database migration back to local disks
The primary function of the Configuration Wizard is to migrate SQL Server databases to Data ONTAP LUNs so that the databases can be backed up and restored using SnapManager. If you choose to stop using SnapManager as your data management tool, you can also use the Configuration Wizard to migrate your databases back to local disks. However, by default, the Where to Move databases screen of the Configuration Wizard does not list any local drives unless you explicitly enable the "migrate databases to local disks" feature.
