Recently we added our latest NetApp cluster and we noticed that our check whether volumes have the correct snapmirror label came back with errors.
During the debugging we found that for the new cluster the ‘get-ncsnapshot’ cmdlet returned an empty string on the ‘SnapmirrorLabel’ value.
I used the following DataOntap module Version : 4.2.0
On a < Ontap 9 filer this is no problem:
Connect-NcController hvs1san031 -Credential $CredNA
Name Address Vserver Version
---- ------- ------- -------
hvs1san031 10.253.4.xx NetApp Release 8.3.2P1: Thu Apr 14 15:58:25 UTC 2016
get-ncsnapshot n2_esx_os_1057 -SnapName daily.2017-06-13_0010 | fl

SnaplockExpiryTimeDT :
SnapmirrorLabel : daily
SnapshotInstanceUuid : d0f14f9f-ee17-4e70-8d5a-6b7431791cfb

On the Ontap 9 filer the result is null:
Connect-NcController asd2san034 -Credential $CredNA

asd2san034 10.253.2.xx NetApp Release 9.1P2: Tue Feb 28 18:17:30 UTC 2017

Ont the CLI the snapshot returns the configures snapmirror label:
....
Volume: s2_lnx1512_export
Snapshot: daily.2017-06-13_0010
Creation Time: Tue Jun 13 00:10:00 2017
Label for SnapMirror Operations: daily
.......
Anybody any thoughts on how to resolve this?
