I was replicating the old policies.
Here were the policies on the 7-mode NetApp
shares0 4 13 6@8,12,16,20
profiles: 2 2 6@8,12,16,20
So first thing I had to do was create a new cron job definition for the times they wanted.
job schedule cron create bmh -hour 8,12,16,20 -minute 0
Next I had to create the snapshot policies
vol snapshot policy create -vserver BMH-Share-01 -policy 4w13d6h -enabled true -schedule1 weekly -count1 4 -schedule2 daily -count2 13 -schedule3 bmh -count3 6
vol snapshot policy create -vserver BMH-Share-01 -policy 2w2d6h -enabled true -schedule1 weekly -count1 2 -schedule2 daily -count2 2 -schedule3 bmh -count3 6
Then I had to apply them to the volumes. You can’t apply them until you have done your cutover and they are no longer TDP mirrors.
vol modify -vserver BMH-Share-01 -volume shares0 -snapshot-policy 4w13d6h
vol modify -vserver BMH-Share-01 -volume profiles -snapshot-policy 2w2d6h
BMHNetApp::> snapshot policy show
Vserver: BMH-Share-01
