cp command on NetApp?

Post #1 of 3 (1896 views)

I want to copy large amounts of data around, and I'm reluctant to pull the
data down from the filer and push it back again. I know there's a mv
command on the NetApp - is there any way of doing a cp? And if so, does it
come with a particular ONTAP version?

Ed,

ndmpcopy is now native on the filers as of DO 6.2. I used it the other
day and it worked great if your doing data migrations from filer to filer.

You can use dd, AFAIK it came with DOT 6.
