Snapmirror error when initializing basline with simulator

[MA_STOCKAGE]

Hello,

I have a problem with the simulator of Netapp version 8.1.2

After creating the relationship between the source & destination.

Exactly when i initialize the transfer of the baseline, the virtual machine source crash with the following error

Can you help about this issue please.

Thanks in advance.

what version of workstation are you using and can you attach the vmware log file

Thanks davidrnexonfor your return, I'm using the version 8.

You find in attachement the log files of the virtual machine

When you provisioned the simulator did you right click the *.vmx file and select open with VMware Workstation ? I can't look at the log files now but will today or tomorrow

Hello David,

Thank's for your support, i resolved this issue after a deep investigation.

The problem was there because i enabled the jumbo frames on my both ontap simulators.

who was not the case in my ESX servers.

So for that i disable Jumbo Frames with assigning the value of 1500 to the MTU size

  ifconfig e0a mtusize 1500

and it's working, the transfer of the baseline finished with sucess

Hi good to see you worked it out, sorry I had not found time to look into your logs. I actually seen other weird issues with enabling jumbo frames with the sim and in workstation. When running on vm workstation, like you mentioned above, don't use jumbo frames.
