Mirror and Vault policy

Hi community,

 

We are now using SnapMirror and SnapVault, we want to change it to MirrorandVault. But for destination volume we want to keep that one, which was vault until now, because there are snapshots from 2 years ago. Is this possible? 

We did a few tests but without success. The main problem is that on the source side we have 11 Vservers which have corresponding DP Vservers on the destination side, but all vaults Volumes are under only one "backup" Vserver. So we can't create relationship for whole Vserver. So we tried also reallocate "vault" volume from shared "backup" Vserver to another Vserver and then create relationship based on Vserver but we got error that Volumes are not the same on both sides, because of _root Volume. We also wanted to try create separate relationship for each Volume and then for Vserver and it should merge to one relationship after that, but we were not able to create relationship for _root Volume.

 

Do you have any suggestion how to do this action in this specific case?

Note: We don't want to have separate relationship for each Volume as there  will be no option to do failover by "one click" in case of some disaster on primary side.

 

Thanks in advance for any idea.

Olivia
