Hi,
I am using SnapCreator with SMSQL in combination with VSM and SV updates, and I am struggling to get the SV updates
to work correctly. I tried SC (server & agent) 3.5.0 and 3.6.0c.
What exactly is the nature/cause of this error message ?
The following thread:
https://communities.netapp.com/thread/17572
points to a problem with multihomed storage systems and SV transfers running over specific interfaces.
While I am working with storage systems with dedicated network interfaces for SM and SV traffic, I am using the hosts
files on the filers to route all SM and SV traffic over specific interfaces. All SM/SV relations are known on both
source and destination by the actual filer hostname when typing "snapmirror/snapvault status".
Also, I tried removing the /etc/hosts entries so that all traffic would run over the public interfaces,
with no difference. Moreover, There is a similar configuration I have running on two other filers
that is working correctly.
The last thing I tried to today was sniffing the traffic on the destination filer: during the backup, there is
not a single packet from the SnapCreator server sent to the destination.
Any ideas why I may be running into this error message ? Thanks in advance,
Filip
