Backing out an online migration of a native file system to the VxFS file system

The following procedure backs out an online migration operation of a native file system to the VxFS file system.

Note:

As both source and target file system are kept in sync during migration, the application sometimes experiences performance degradation.

In the case of a system failure, if the migration operation completed before the system crashed, then you are able to use the VxFS file system.

To back out an online migration operation of a native file system to the VxFS file system

  1. Shut down the application
  2. Abort the migration:
    # fsmigadm abort /mnt1

    The source file system is mounted again.

  3. Bring the application online.
