Hi Rodrigo,

Thanks for your help on this. We were helping Ignazio in #openstack-manila
channel. He wants to migrate a share across ONTAP clusters, which isn't
supported in the current implementation of the driver-assisted-migration
with NetApp driver. So, instead of using migration methods, we suggested
using share-replication to create a copy in the destination, which will use
the storage technologies to copy the data faster. Ignazio didn't try that
out yet, since it was late in his timezone. We should continue tomorrow or
in the next few days.

Best regards,
