If you are wanting seamless: Create a new pool in your existing file system, a new placement policy, and a use a movement policy to move the old data between the pools. The new placement policy will ensure new data is only written to the new location.
Then when the old GL2 pool is empty you can remove it/offline it/whatever.

Hi ! We want to migrate data from an old ESS GL2 ( 5. 0. 5 ) to ESS3500 solution. (5. 1. x) I wanted to ask is there any way to migrate the data with gpfs methods? We heard that you cannot create a rg on an ess3500 when it´s nodes become member
Hi !
We want to migrate data from an old ESS GL2 ( 5.0.5 ) to ESS3500 solution. (5.1.x)
I wanted to ask is there any way to migrate the data with gpfs methods?
We heard that you cannot create a rg on an ess3500 when it´s nodes become member of the old cluster because of GNR Version mismatch
I thought I can create new rg on ess3500 , create vdisksets and nsds , then add the disks to a filesystem based on vdisks of old rgs
I there really no way to transfer with gpfs methods? (like mmadddisk (new vdisks(nsds) of 3500 , and then mmdeldisk the old nsds(vdisks)
So if you run into this situation you have to create a new cluster?
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
