Beginning with ONTAP 9.11.1, you can use the ONTAP CLI to convert in-place an existing NVMe namespace to a LUN.
Before you start
-
Specified NVMe namespace should not have any existing maps to a Subsystem.
-
Namespace should not be part of a Snapshot copy or on the destination side of SnapMirror relationship as a read-only namespace.
-
Since NVMe namespaces are only supported with specific platforms and network cards, this feature only works with specific hardware.
Steps
-
Enter the following command to convert an NVMe namespace to a LUN:
lun convert-from-namespace -vserver -namespace-path
