Beginning with ONTAP 9.9.1, you can also move volumes based on analysis of active and inactive data storage. For more information, see File System Analytics overview.

Steps

  1. Click Storage > Volumes.

  2. Select the volume or volumes that you want to move, and then click Move.

  3. Select an existing tier (aggregate) to which you want to move the volume or volumes.
