Did you try to ping from the source to the destination? Did it work?

Are snapvault schedules defined on source and destination...

What about messages in snapmirror.log?

From both the source and destination it says it's alive

on the source side I checked

snapmirror.access legacy

---------------------

rdfile /etc/snapmirror.allow
ecdrtudt02b
ecdrtudt03b
ecdrtudt04b

The destination isn't listed... I also checked for this on the destination side and source isn't listed
