We have 2 clustered 7-mode storage arrays (netapp01/netapp02 and netapp03a/netapp03b). I am able to establish a mirror using DFM between netapp03a and Netapp02, netapp03b and netapp01, but not between netapp03a and netapp01. All controllers have a 10GB interface on a private network. When I attempt a mirror between netapp03a and netapp01 I get an error saying:
"Fri Apr 4 11:34:02 EDT : SnapMirror: destination transfer from netapp01_netapp03a_1384351234:Courses2Vol to SP_Courses2Vol : cannot connect to source filer."
According to the job status it is attempting to use the ip addresses for the private network. When I do a packet trace on netapp03a during the time the error is generated, I see no attempts to connect to netapp01 over any of it's interfaces.
Does anyone have any ideas where the problem may be?
