SMO Clone Issue After Server Move

[KenO]

Greetings,

We are running into a cloning issue and looking for advice/thoughts.

Using SMO, we are cloning to a secondary destination server. The process "was" working before the secondary server was rebuilt.

The same settings were applied to the new secondary server.

The SOURCE and DESTINATION servers are are different subnets for data access, but both can communicate with the MGMT IP (primary storage system  IP).

A couple of things that I am unclear on:

1. What exacly is the datapath IP used for and do we really need it?

2. Where is SMO obtaining the "192.168.134.114" address from? Snapdrive config? Host file?

We have tried multiple configuration changes to no avail.

SNAPDRIVE communication with the storage systems has been verified on all hosts and works correctly.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

try below solution, if not work, you might need to open a case

Make a change in the snapdrive.conf file:

snapcreate-check-nonpersistent-nfs=off

Check that the entries exist in /etc/fstab for specified nfs fs.

Thanks,

The snapdrive configs are the same pre/post migration and the fstab is good.

The problem is that each server is on a different storage vlan.

The target server receiving the clone is trying to mount with the source server storage vlan IP.

It worked before the source server was migrated to a new VM.

We did notice that the fstab on the original source server had the data volume mounted with the filer hostname and the new source server it is mounted with the IP.

Will test this afternoon with moutning using the filer hostname.
