Hi @socuser ,

You will have to stop aggregation during this data transfer to the new NAS. make sure all packetdb,metadb,sessiondb, index contents are copied over to the new NAS. Then update the configuration of Archiver with new NAS directories for meta.dir,session.dir,packet.dir and index.dir.

Then restart Archiver service and the data will have to be initialized after a few hours depending on the size. Then aggregation has to be started.

HI Sravan ,

Currently our Archiver is mounted with temporary NAS Storage as warm storage, and we got permanent NAS Storage solution and we have mounted it successfully. We need to migrate the old data from temporary NAS to Permanent NAS ASAP because temporary NAS is going to be fulled within a week.

Temporary NAS has 50 TB of data needs to be transferred to the permanent NAS.

Please help us with the Migration Plan.
And suggest what if we copy the data in bulk in a network , whether it cause any choke in the network ,any impact in network performance & Server due to huge data copying continuously without any gap.

Thanks & Regards,
