Turns out that the quotas are filesystem dependant. So the only way to migrate the filesystem with shares AND quotas is to recreate the quotas on the new filesystem prior to setting up the replication. Below are the steps I used with a test filesystem:  Migrating Celerra Filesystems to new Storage Pool (Keeping Quota and Shares intact)  NOTE:Current Filesystem Name: TESTFSNew (target) Filesystem Name will be TESTFS_NEWPreferred DM/vdm: vdm01New Storage Pool: symm_new_pool  GATHER INFORMATION: Get Current FS Size information:nas_fs -size TESTFSnas_fs -info TESTFS  $ nas_fs -size TESTFStotal = 10044 avail = 4682 used = 5361 ( 53% ) (sizes in MB) ( blockcount = 20889600 )volume: total = 10200 (sizes in MB) ( blockcount = 20889600 ) avail = 4683 used = 5517 ( 54% )$ nas_fs -info TESTFSid        = 8070name      = TESTFSacl       = 0in_use    = Truetype      = uxfsworm      = offvolume    = v12723pool      = symm_old_poolmember_of = root_avm_fs_group_21rw_servers= server_2ro_servers=rw_vdms   = vdm01ro_vdms   =auto_ext  = no,virtual_provision=nodeduplication   = Onstor_devs = 000192602783-45B1,000192602783-45D1disks     = d12,d13 disk=d12   stor_dev=000192602783-45B1   addr=c16t1l6-117-1  server=server_2 disk=d13   stor_dev=000192602783-45D1   addr=c16t1l7-117-1  server=server_2  Get Current Tree Quota Information for FS:nas_quotas -list -tree -fs TESTFSnas_quotas -report -tree -fs TESTFS  $ nas_quotas -list -tree -fs TESTFS+------------------------------------------------------------------------------+| Quota trees for filesystem TESTFS mounted  on /root_vdm_1/TESTFS:+------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+|TreeId| Quota tree path (Comment)                                             |+------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+|    1 | /TESTFS (.Testing.)                                                   |+------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+$ nas_quotas -report -tree -fs TESTFSReport for tree quotas on filesystem TESTFS mounted on /root_vdm_1/TESTFS+------------+-----------------------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+| Tree       |                 Bytes Used  (1K)              |                    Files                      |+------------+------------+------------+------------+--------+------------+------------+------------+--------+|            |    Used    |    Soft    |    Hard    |Timeleft|    Used    |    Soft    |    Hard    |Timeleft|+------------+------------+------------+------------+--------+------------+------------+------------+--------+|#1          |     5487328|     5767168|     6291456|        |         589|           0|           0|        |+------------+------------+------------+------------+--------+------------+------------+------------+--------+ CREATE TARGET FILESYSTEM Create New storage:nas_fs -name TESTFS_NEW -type uxfs -create size=10200M pool=symm_new_pool storage=000192602783 -auto_extend yes -vp no -hwm 90% -max_size 10240M -option slice=yes  Mount New Storage on appropriate DM/vdm:server_mountpoint vdm01 -create /TESTFS_NEWserver_mount vdm01 TESTFS_NEW /TESTFS_NEW $ server_mountpoint vdm01 -create /TESTFS_NEWvdm01 : done$ server_mount vdm01 TESTFS_NEW /TESTFS_NEWvdm01 : done  Create Quota for New Storage:nas_quotas -on -tree -fs TESTFS_NEW -path /TESTFS -comment ‘Testing’nas_quotas -edit -tree -fs TESTFS_NEW -block 6291456:5767168 1  Mount NEW FS as Read Only (so it can be used for replication):server_mount vdm01 -Force -option ro TESTFS_NEW /TESTFS_NEW  Verify NEW FS is Read Only:nas_fs -info TESTFS_NEW  REPLICATION: Create Replication:nas_replicate -create TESTFS_REPLICATION -source -fs TESTFS -destination -fs TESTFS_NEW -interconnect loopback -max_time_out_of_sync 5 -overwrite_destination  List replication session:nas_replicate -info -all  When Replication is done (Current Transfer is Full Copy = No), Switchover:nas_replicate -switchover TESTFS_REPLICATION  Check FS status to make sure TESTFS is RO and TESTFS_NEW is RW:nas_fs -info TESTFSnas_fs -info TESTFS_NEW  Verify no checkpoints exist:fs_ckpt TESTFS -listfs_ckpt TESTFS_NEW -list  Delete Replication Session: nas_replicate -delete TESTFS_REPLICATION -mode both  SWAP FILESYSTEMS Unmount Filesystems:server_umount ALL -perm /TESTFSserver_umount ALL -perm /TESTFS_NEW  Rename Filesystems:nas_fs -rename TESTFS TESTFS_OLDnas_fs -rename TESTFS_NEW TESTFS  Remove server2 mount for new FS left over from repl switchover:server_mount server_2 -option RO accesspolicy=NATIVE TESTFS /TESTFSserver_umount server_2 -perm /TESTFS  Mount new FS on preferred vdm:server_mount vdm01 accesspolicy=NATIVE TESTFS /TESTFS  Verify that the shares work by accessing them, and run nas_quotas -report -tree -fs TESTFS to verify that the Quota can see the new storage.

Is there a way to migrate filesystems to new storage pool while preserving share permissions & quotas? We need to move several filesystems with tree quotas and their related CIFS shares off of an old storage pool (whose backend storage consists of 1TB drives on our VMAX) to a new storage pool (whose backend storage consists of 2TB drives on our VMAX) so we can remove the aforementioned 1TB drives from our VMAX. We tried Celerra Replicator but when tested on a small filesystem we had to recreate all the shares to point to the new file system and it made the tree quotas invalid for that migrated filesystem.  Is there a better way to do this without losing the shares and quotas?   Thanks!  Celerra NS-G8 running software version 6.0.41-3
