Hi Folk,
(not sure if this is the right forum, please move or advise if needed!)
We've historically been backing up data from our old 7-Mode NetApp using NDMP into CommVault, including volumes containing LUNs. (don't ask, before my time!)
They were originally written to tape, that have now been migrated to Cloud (Azure) storage. (We do have the tapes available for a limited time)
However, now we've migrated to Clustered ONTAP, and we are trying to restore old 7-Mode LUNs to the new Cluster.
I have successfully restored them to an old 7-mode controller as a visible LUN, but we need to power it down and dispose of it.....
I have also restored the LUN file to cluster mode, but it does not appear as a NetApp LUN - it appears as a file (as NetApp LUNS are) but is lacking that something special that tells the Cluster/Node that it's a LUN.
I have tried restoring the LUN/file using node-scoped NDMP, SVM-scoped (both SVM direct and cluster-aware), but none of them appear as a LUN.
Am I missing something obvious?
We're on CommVault V11.20, CLuster is on NetApp ONTAP 9.7 P3 and the old filers were on 8.2 SP1
Cheers,
Stuart
