Powershell SnapMirror

Hi, I have done a snapmirror between clusters, and feel fairly comfortable with the process, what i was wanting to know was how do i find out the status of a snapmirror in progress, how much data has been moved and how long the process has been running. I know via command line how to do it, but could anyone show me how to do it in powershell. 

 

we are currently on a fas8020 running 8.3.1. Any help most appreciated.

Have you looked at the Get-NcSnapMirror cmdlet?  I believe that if you speciffy only one relationship it will return all of the attributes for that relationship.  I do not have a working lab to test that, but it should be quick to check.  The Get-NcSnapMirrorHistory may also have the information that you are looking for, but I am not sure if it will return it for a running update.

Hi Geringer, though the command is useful it doesnt provide the detail that i need. I can see how this command can be used to monitor mirror history of comms. I will definately be using this in the future in my toolkit.

I think something like this will work to return the amount of data transferred and time elapsed.  I don't have any active snapmirror relationships to test with, so I can't say for sure...

 

Get-NcSnapmirror -Query @{ RelationshipStatus = "transferring" } | Select-Object SourceLocation,DestinationLocation, `
    @{'N'='GB Transferred'; 'E'={ [Math]::Round($snapmirror.TotalTransferBytes / 1gb, 2) } }, `
    @{'N'='Min Elapsed'; 'E'={ [Math]::Round((New-TimeSpan -Seconds $snapmirror.TotalTransferTimeSecs).Minutes, 2) } }

Hi, Thanks for shwoing me this, it seems as if this could be it. I will set up some data to transfer and then gt back to you with some results. Many thanks again.

Hi, Just set another snapmirror to go now, and i can see the results via ssh. 

 

Using the command above, in " GB Transferred Min Elapsed" i just aget a 0 all the way down. There are names in "SourceLocation" and  "DestinationLocation" but nothing in the last column, also the snapmirror that i have set of cannot be seen anywhere in this command. 

 

Not sure what more to add really 😞

There are quite some powershell commands for snapmirror written in WFA.

Try to use these commands by changing a little.

I have copied some of the powershell commands below.

 

 

1.Remove SnapMirror

 

param (
[parameter(Mandatory=$true, HelpMessage="Source Cluster")]
[string]$SourceCluster,

[parameter(Mandatory=$true, HelpMessage="Destination Cluster")]
[string]$DestinationCluster,

[parameter(Mandatory=$true, HelpMessage="Source Storage Virtual Machine")]
[string]$SourceVserver,

[parameter(Mandatory=$true, HelpMessage="Destination Storage Virtual Machine")]
[string]$DestinationVserver,

[parameter(Mandatory=$true, HelpMessage="Source Volume")]
[string]$SourceVolume,

[parameter(Mandatory=$true, HelpMessage="Destination Volume")]
[string]$DestinationVolume,

[parameter(Mandatory=$true, HelpMessage="Destination Cluster IP Address")]
[string]$DestinationClusterIP
)

# connect to controller
Connect-WfaCluster $DestinationClusterIP

$vsm = Get-NcSnapmirror -SourceCluster $SourceCluster -DestinationCluster $DestinationCluster -SourceVserver $SourceVserver -DestinationVserver $DestinationVserver -SourceVolume $SourceVolume -DestinationVolume $DestinationVolume -ErrorAction Stop

if($vsm -and $vsm.Status -eq "transferring")
{
throw "Cannot remove relationship as it is currently transferring."
}

Get-WFALogger -Info -message $("Removing SnapMirror relationship between " + $SourceCluster + ":"+ $SourceVserver + "/"+ $SourceVolume + "and" + $DestinationCluster + ":"+ $DestinationVserver + "/"+ $DestinationVolume )
Remove-NcSnapmirror -SourceCluster $SourceCluster -DestinationCluster $DestinationCluster -SourceVserver $SourceVserver -DestinationVserver $DestinationVserver -SourceVolume $SourceVolume -DestinationVolume $DestinationVolume -Confirm:$false -ErrorAction Stop

You may want to look into the featured post for snapmirror auditlog parser:

 

https://community.netapp.com/t5/Microsoft-Cloud-and-Virtualization-Discussions/PowerShell-SnapMirror-Audit-Log-Parser-for-CDOT/m-p/130304#M5358

 

It does a lot more than what you posted, but you can either take from that script what you need, or you'll find that it is even better than what you wanted :).
