After snapmirror reversal, howto update snapvault ?

vmsjaak13 — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 06:50:35 GMT

Start situation:

VSM:

filerA:volA -> filerB:volB

SV:

filerA:/vol/volA/qtree -> filerC:/vol/volC/qtree

Snapmirror relationship is being reversed, because of a failover test:

filerB:volB -> filerA:volA

How can I change the snapvault so that filerC now uses filerB:/vol/volB/qtree as the source instead of filerA:/vol/volA/qtree

Kind regards,

Niek

On filerC, you can perform the following:

filerC> snapvault modify –S filerB:/vol/volB/qtree /vol/volC/qtree

filerC> snapvault update /vol/volC/qtree

Ah thanks: that's seems logical. Will test tomorrow.
