snapvault lag keeps growing

william — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 04:08:13 GMT

I am snap vaulting serveral volumes. One volumes lag keeps growing for some reason.

I have tried deleting it and recreating it but it still has the same problem. Any idea what

I can do to trouble shoot this and hopefully resolve this issue?

How do you transfer these snapshots? (DFM, OnTap...)

Why has the relationship the volume graymail and you show snap list from a different volume (mail)?

Have you configured snapvault snap sched on the source if not using DFM or scripts?
