You must be aware of certain considerations when transitioning 7-Mode IP addresses to storage virtual machines (SVMs) in ONTAP.
-
You can transition existing 7-Mode IP addresses or specify new IP addresses to be configured on the SVM by using the 7-Mode Transition Tool.
-
Existing 7-Mode IP addresses are created on the SVM in the administrative
down
state in the apply configuration (precutover) phase. -
New IP addresses are created on the SVM in the administrative
up
state in the apply configuration (precutover) phase.
-
-
IPv6 addresses cannot be transitioned and must be manually configured after the transition.
-
iSCSI and FC LIFs are not transitioned and must be manually configured after the transition.
