Hi everyone, greetings I´m making an active sync lab with the ONTAP simulator 9.15.1, it´s a snapmirror symmetric active/active configuration All the configurations are done following the NetApp documentation but when i start the replication the snapmirror relationship is shown as "Unhealthy" and the state "Not initialized", although i initialize the relationship over and over the Unhealthy and Not initialize status persists. The command snapmirror show -fields unhealthy-reason shows nothing but at some point in another attempt showed something about some "update" failure. It´s there any limitations in the simulator that turns down this type of implementation? Has anyone already tried this implementation successfully? I appreciate any help

I am attempting to setup two NetApp clusters with two nodes each using the 9.7 simulator and peer them to do SnapMirror. I get an error stating that I cannot peer two systems with the same UUID. I changed the second node serial number with the setenv SYS_SERIAL_NUM 4034389-06-2 and setenv bootarg.nvram.sysid commands, but the license provided with the simulator only has two serial numbers I can use and I need four apparently.
Does anyone know how to get around this?

Hi,
the document describing the set setup of the simulator cover only Windows and Mac, however I would like to run the simulator on a VMWare player on a linux (debian) system.
Is there any reason this should not work?
And what would be the minimal hardware requirements (could you make do with only 4 GB of RAM?)
Many thanks!
