I am trying to script the snapmirror failover process using PTK. When I run the following set of commands, # Update Existing SnapMirror and then Break it off Invoke-NcSnapMirrorUpdate -Controller $DstCtrl -DestinationVserver $DstSVM -DestinationVolume $DstVol -ErrorAction stop Watch-Command { Get-NcSnapMirror -Controller $DstCtrl -DestinationVserver $DstSVM -DestinationVolume $DstVol | Select Status } -Until "idle" Invoke-NcSnapMirrorQuiesce -Controller $DstCtrl -DestinationVserver $DstSVM -DestinationVolume $DstVol -ErrorAction stop Watch-Command { Get-NcSnapMirror -Controller $DstCtrl -DestinationVserver $DstSVM -DestinationVolume $DstVol | Select Status } -Until "quiesced" Invoke-NcSnapMirrorBreak -Controller $DstCtrl -DestinationVserver $DstSVM -DestinationVolume $DstVol -Confirm:$false -ErrorAction stop the Invoke-NcSnapMirrorBreak sometime returns with an error: Invoke-NcSnapMirrorBreak : Another SnapMirror operation is in progress. At Z:\Software\NetApp\Powershell Toolkit\Scripts\SnapMirror-Reverse-v3.ps1:119 char:1 + Invoke-NcSnapMirrorBreak -Controller $DstCtrl -DestinationVserver $Ds ... + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: (apfas8200:NcController) [Invoke-NcSnapmirrorBreak], EANOTHER_OP_ACTIVE + FullyQualifiedErrorId : ApiException,DataONTAP.C.PowerShell.SDK.Cmdlets.Snapmirror.InvokeNcSnapmirrorBreak Why does it report another operation is in progress? I just checked the status, and it was quiesced. It does not fail every time it runs, just some of the time. I have many snapmirrors where I perform this operation repeatedly. Many work just fine and then others seem to fail nearly all the time. I can sometimes just resume the snapmirror and start the script again and it runs without any issues on the same snapmirror. Is there some code I can add to check and try again... like maybe 3 times before aborting? Or better yet, does anyone know what I am not doing correctly to make sure the snapmirror is not performing another operation before I request the snapmirror break?

The link to download the powershell toolkit as per forums is https://mysupport-beta.netapp.com/ui/tools/tool-eula/5dd4e425ea373600018f94be but when I get to that link, its a blank page. I am trying to download the latest powershell toolkit to be able to perform snapmirror actions like break and restore etc. Thanks Satish
