You can use the volume create command on the destination to create a destination volume. The destination volume should be the same or greater in size than the source volume. Learn more about volume create in the ONTAP command reference.

Step

  1. Create a destination volume:

    volume create -vserver SVM -volume volume -aggregate aggregate -type DP -size size

    The following example creates a 2-GB destination volume named volA_dst:

    cluster_dst::> volume create -vserver SVM_backup -volume volA_dst -aggregate node01_aggr -type DP -size 2GB
