Hi my friend,
This is neto from Brazil
How are you?
Assuming it's 7-mode 😉
rep = failover(fil-02-p,fil-01-p)(fil-02-p-e0a,fil-01-p-e0a)
rep:volname1 dest:volname1 compression=enable - 30 * * *
when I'm trying now to update the snapmirror:
snapmirror update volname1
Source not set on command line or in /etc/snapmirror.conf file.
----- You need to add this on snapmirror.conf if you want to execute snapmirror update
snapmirror update -S rep:volname1 dest:volname1
Illegal destination filer specification: dest.
Destination filer, if specified, must match the local host: fil-01-p.
------ Probably the filername is fil-01-p and you are using specific hostnames (with specific ports) to replicate. Is that correct? Why not to add on /etc/hosts that rep is fil-01-p
like:
<ip address> rep fil-01-p
When I replace "dest" with fil-01-p this isn't really what I'm after as the failover logic wouldn't be there anymore?
snapmirror update -S rep:volname1 fil-01-p:volname1
SnapMirror: destination transfer from rep:volname1 to volname1 : cannot connect to source filer.
Transfer aborted: cannot connect to source filer.
Could you please try and let me know?
