a few questions about snapvault.

1. if we have snapmirror in place replicated snapshots to destination. now we want to add snapvault, what should we do, add snapvault relationship with policy and sechedule?

2. can we convert existing snapshots to snapvaults?

I assume you refer to a prior DP relationship that you wish to be able to take advantage of archiving snapshots.

The following KB may be helpful on that matter of converting the relationships:

The following documentation should provide details of mirror and vault relationships associated with the change to an XDP relationship.
