Import a ReadyDATA LUN
If you have exported a LUN to a network attached server, you can import the LUN to the 
ReadyDATA. For large data sets, exporting a LUN, moving the NAS (or media with the 
exported file) to the same LAN as the destination ReadyDATA, and then importing is much 
quicker than replicating the LUN over a WAN. Use this process for seeding replication from a 
share to a remote LUN, and for speeding disaster recovery.
To import a LUN from another volume:
1. 
Select Shares
2. 
Click the Data Set button (with four cubes, 
).
The LUN screen displays (see the following figure).
3. 
Click the Import Share/LUN from NFS icon next to the destination volume. 
The Import Share/LUN from NFS Server screen opens.
NFS Path
Enter the path to the directory for 
the file containing the exported 
share.
File Name
Enter a file name for the exported 
share. The export saves all of the 
data from the LUN including the 
snap shots, and related information 
in a single file.
