Which migration options are supported when upgrading from 32-bit to 64-bit: combination of qtrees via QSM and volumes via ndmpcopy corresponds to which choice?

• A. Migration of qtrees via QSM
• B. Migration of volumes via ndmpcopy
• C. Migration of volumes via SnapMirror
• D. Both A and B

Answer: (D)

During a 32-bit to 64-bit upgrade on NetApp 7-Mode, you can move both the qtrees and the volumes using appropriate methods. Qtree data can be migrated with QSM (Qtree SnapMirror), while entire volumes can be copied with NDMP copy. The upgrade path supports performing both of these migrations—the qtrees via QSM and the volumes via NDMP copy—together as part of the upgrade process. SnapMirror, though a useful replication tool for DR and ongoing protection, isn’t the chosen method for migrating volumes in this upgrade scenario. So the supported combination is migrating qtrees with QSM and volumes with NDMP copy.
