System Manager support for SnapMirror Cloud with Flexgroup volume

I used laboratory “Up and Running with ONTAP 9.14.1 and System Manager v1.5" to test Snapmirror Cloud with Flexgroup source volume using System Manager.

During configuration the error "You can´t use System Manager to create Snapmirror Cloud object store relationship with FlexGroup volumes” was reported.

Is there any version of System Manager that supports Snapmirror Cloud with Flexgroup volume?

I don't think using System Manager as the orchestrator for SnapMirror Cloud supports FlexGroups.
This implementation is quite old and since its inception in ONTAP 9.9.1 there has not been any real progress with the SnapMirror Cloud implementation in System Manager, at least I don't noticed anything new since then.

I guess they're pushing BlueXP Backup & Recovery, which does support FlexGroups as the source of SnapMirror Cloud relationships.

Hi, you should be able to use the ONTAP CLI if it is convenient for you, for example:
snapmirror create -source-path YourVserver:YourVolume -destination-path S3Target:/objstore/YourVolume_dest -type XDP -policy DailyBackup
snapmirror initialize -source-path YourVserver:YourVolume -destination-path S3Target:/objstore/YourVolume_dest
