The 7-Mode Transition Tool supports the transition of standalone SnapLock Compliance volumes and SnapLock Compliance volumes that are in a SnapMirror relationship.
The workflow for transitioning standalone SnapLock Compliance volumes is the same as for transitioning FlexVol volumes.
The transition of SnapMirror relationships for SnapLock Compliance volumes is not automated by the 7-Mode Transition Tool. You must transition the primary and secondary SnapLock Compliance volumes as stand-alone volumes, and then manually resynchronize the relationships.
You can include the SnapLock Compliance volumes (both stand-alone and the volumes that are in SnapMirror relationships) as a standalone volume in stand-alone, primary, and secondary projects.
The precutover read/write mode is not supported for projects with SnapLock Compliance volumes. It is a best practice to create separate projects for SnapLock Compliance volumes and non-SnapLock Compliance volumes because the precutover read/write mode is not supported if SnapLock Compliance volumes are included in the project.
During the cutover operation, if the selected volume is a SnapLock Compliance volume and it is the destination of a SnapMirror relationship, then the SnapMirror relationship between the 7-Mode volume and the ONTAP volume is deleted without SnapMirror break operation. This action enables the secondary ONTAP SnapLock Compliance volumes to remain in read-only mode. The secondary ONTAP SnapLock Compliance volumes must be in read-only mode for the resynchronization operation to be successful between the primary and secondary SnapLock Compliance volumes.
