Snapdrive and flexclone

I have a customer who has successfully replicaed (via snapmirror) a volume containing a SMSQL backup. They were able to succesfully create a flexclone of the replicated volume and confirm that it's online.

They are also running snapdrive 6.0.1 on the Windows server in DR. Normally, all you have to do is go into snapdrive and connect to the filer's volume/lun. For whatever reason the flexclone volume does not show up in the list of volumes on that filer.

Is there something else that needs to be done for snapdrive to be able to see that flexclone volume? Normally, with snapdrive 6.0.X there is no longer the need to share out the volume first before snapdrive can see it - just automatic. Yte, I even went so far as to create a CIFS share for the flexclone volume and snapdrive still cannot display it.

If someone could point out what's wrong I'd appreciate it.

Cheers
