Snapmirror Deletion

Harisheldon — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 13:18:05 GMT

Greetings,

In the process of cleaning up the work a contractor did for us, and I am finding multiple issues, one mainly being snapmirrors. He crated snapmirrors, without a volume present on the destination. Please, don't ask. I go into the snapmirror on the destination, highlight it, and it will not delete because a volume does not exist. The only way that I have been able to find a way to delete this is by re-creating a snapmirror from the source, thus creating a snapmirror, to include a volume on the destination. Once done, I can go in and delete the snapmirror and then the volume.

Question: Does anyone know the CLI to go into the destination and, without the volume being present, delete the snapmirror? There are a multitude of snapmirrors, and going the long route will take a couple of days to do. Any and all assistance will be greatly appreciate. Thanks in advance.

If it is a 7-mode system, then try deleting the respective entry in /etc/snapmirror.conf file and then try removing the relationship.

Let me know if it worked!
