Creating Snap Drive snapshot in source environment and adding to DR server from destination

greeneyedmonster1 — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 22:54:35 GMT

We have a server in our production enviroment. Using Snap Drive I have created a snapshot of one of the drives on this server. which is present on the source filer.

As the snapshot didnt seem to replicate to the destination filer using snapmirror I manually updated the sync betwen source and destination to push the snap shot to the destination filer.

I could see the snapshot was present in destination, so using Snap Drive on a DR server i tried to mount the LUN of the snapshot.

Unfortunatle I get the following error:

does anyone know what Im doing wrong?

cheers Mike
