Hello everybody,

I need an clarification about QSM.

Since QSM is working in a file level what will happen in
environment with LUN inside of qtree if some data changed?

Will QSM backup full LUN?

Thanks.

Hi,

QSM uses a logical replication in this sense, that all the files and directories in the source file system are created in the destination file system.

However, once the baseline is established, only block-level changes within files will be replicated during QSM update.

Thanks Rabek,

In other words, since initial transfer done changes in the LUN
will not cause full LUN replication in the QSM, right?
