We've actually had this need a number of times... Say for instance, you've installed a new version of software in volume X for testing purposes, or as Derrick suggests, using the volume as a web backend.

Then you run out of disk space, have a failing server, etc, and you need to move the RO replications - there's no easy way to do so without releasing the volume.

perl scripts exist to do it and I think have been posted here in the past;
they may even deal with the "RO already exists" case.


It would be nice if there were a repository of publically available
contrib stuff like that.

the interesting case is where the RW has unreleased changes and you want to
recreate the ROs as they are now. i don't know of distributed tools to do
this.


I hadn't really thought about people intentionally keeping their RWs &
ROs out of sync w/each other.  I'm not clear why someone would want to
do that -- could you elaborate?
