repl.engine.error: replStatus="5", replFailureMsg="5898500"

Hi,

 

We have a 8020 with ontap 8.3 cluster mode and we have a seperate 2554 ontap 8.3 cluster. The 8020 cluster snapmirrors to the 2554 cluster.

 

All is working, all  snapmirror relations are up and running, no errors or issues on the snapmirror relations. But on the snapmirror destination (the 2554) we see a DEBUG message in teh logs each 15 minutes:

 

DEBUG         repl.engine.error: replStatus="5", replFailureMsg="5898500", replFailureMsgDetail="0", functionName="void repl_volume::Query::_queryResponse(repl_spinnp::Request&, const spinnp_repl_result_t&, repl_spinnp::Response*)", lineNumber="149"

 

The snapmirrors (replication) run each hour and are up to date, no errors, etc. No other log messages that give any hint.

 

So this debug error is bugging me, what does it mean, to what volume is it related, what does it mean?

 

Hope someone can help

I saw an internal article that suggested that this might be due to MTU issues. Have a look at this public KB and see if it helps: https://kb.netapp.com/support/index?page=content&id=2020029&locale=en_US

Thanks for your quick reply!

 

MTU is 9000 on all interfaces regarding intercluster. The nexus switches also have a high mtu:9216 and the source cluster also has mtu 9000

 

cluster peer ping works every time:

 

drs1::*> cluster peer ping -destination-cluster nac1
Node: fas13a                 Destination Cluster: nac1
Destination Node IP Address       Count  TTL RTT(ms) Status
---------------- ---------------- ----- ---- ------- -------------------------

fas15b           x.x.x.88          1  255   0.227 interface_reachable
8 entries were displayed.

 

(i obfuscated the ip's)

 

Lowering the MTU to 1500 seems quite a waste to me 😉

 

Doesn't seem to be this issue or at least i'm not seeing what the KB article is describing

 

Interesting fact, it is almost exact on the quarter of an hour

 

14:00:04
14:15:03
14:15:04
14:45:02
15:00:04
15:00:07
15:30:04
15:45:03
16:00:07
16:00:08
16:15:02
16:30:05

 

the 00 / 15 /30 /45 match with the snapmirror schedules

 

hourly0             @:00
hourly1             @:15
hourly2             @:30
hourly3             @:45

 

But the snapmirrors seem to be oke

 

drs1::snapmirror*> show -fields last-transfer-error-codes,last-transfer-error,status,last-transfer-end-timestamp  ,healthy,last-transfer-size

Hi, It was a shot in the dark really. My only other suggestion would be to open a case. Regards, Warren

Hi,

 

Did you find out the root cause of you problem?

 

I Have exactly the same error message but in my case I try to initialize a svm-dr relationship.

Additionnaly the transfer didn't start and after a while the relationship stays uninitialized and unhealthy.

 

 

Thanks in advance,

Hi,

 

wow blast from the past 🙂 . Nothing we did (top of mind) and its been ages that i've seen this message. I just check my mail with support and one thing i noticed:

 

functionName="void repl_volume"

 

the were hinting at the fact that it might have been because of nothing to mirror / no changes Never got that confirmed though. 

 

Never had this with setting up the relation ship though.

 

Sorry that I can't help you further.
