Snapmirror update policy leaves several snapshots on DR Volume

AdeyinkaGCET — Tue, 24 Sep 2024 11:45:14 GMT

Hello All,

Please a client has Snapmirror configured between Production and DR. Three of the relationships have failed with the following error: "the number of snapshot copies on destination volume has reached maximum supported count of 1019".

Everytime the relationship needs to update as per policy which is HOURLY, it creates a Snapshot on those 3 DR Volumes which causes it to get filled up and eventually cause the relationship to Fail to an Unhealthy state.

Please how can these be rectified?
