I don't know about the ps new-ncsnapmirror command, but here is the info for creating strict-sync via ontap CLI:

https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/ontap-cli-98//snapmirror-initialize.html#examples:

To create a strict SnapMirror Synchronous relationship between FlexVols vol_log and vol_log_sync_dp , to initialize it and bring it to InSync, type the following command:

vs2.example.com::> snapmirror initialize -destination-path vs2.example.com:vol_log_sync_dp -source-path vs1.example.com:vol_log -policy StrictSync

Try this...assuming the cluster, source and dest SVM and volume name variables are already created:


$smpolicy = @{ 
"Source" = "$srcCluster://$srcSvmName/$srcVolumeName";   
"Destination" = "$dstCluster://$dstSvmName/$dstVolumeName";   
"Policy" = "StrictSync"; 
}   

New-NcSnapmirror @smpolicy
