Snapmirror "base snapshot for transfer no longer exists on the source"

Hello,

I have got a problem on my filer ;(

One of my snapmirror relationship doesn´t work anymore.

I deleted two snapshots on the destiantion because the volume was

growing more and more. At least it was bigger then the source volume.

I thought it might be a good idea to delete two snapshots. The result

of that stupid idea is:

base snapshot for transfer no longer exists on the source

It is a Snap Mirror qtree type

Any idea to solve that problem?

Greetings, Chris
