I would like to know if it is possible and the procedure to configure snapmirror between an AFF and another FAS in Ontap 9 by FC.
For ethernet I have other storage configured  but in this case the communication would only be possible by FC for the snapmirror.
Thank you very much

Hi

 

SnapMirror replication over an FC network is not available in clustered Data ONTAP operating system. Refer Intercluster networking on page 12: http://www.netapp.com/us/media/tr-4015.pdf 

Backing up FlexVol volumes from All Flash FAS (AFF) or FAS storage systems to AFF or FAS storage systems is possible. Refer page 8 https://library.netapp.com/ecm/ecm_download_file/ECMLP2494079
