Should I be worried about the following error that is always logged, when an SMVI backup job runs.
498434318 [backup3 aeeb587fadf8f8a37a5dc2860ff21c46] ERROR com.netapp.smvi.task.ontap.util.SnapshotUtil - Could not find current snapshot name smvi_Hourly-Snapshot_novmsnap_20111115213000 or original snapshot name smvi_Hourly-Snapshot_novmsnap_20111115213000 for volume 10.2.90.73:/vol/data
The error will be logged multiple times for different volumes in the job.
It seems that it is losing track of all it snapshots or something. The backups themselves appear to work ok.

The Netapp has the "Automatically delete older snapshots option" enabled. Is this perhaps deleting the older ones? Should that option be enabled or disabled when using SMVI?

The automatically delete older snapshots will be done by the SMVI as per the retention.
Thanks..
