Hi John
The direct Link doesn’t work, probably internal use only.
The following is in the Release-Notes in the first link and it is the same I was referring to before.
I don’t see what you mean, maybe you can elaborate:
Known limitations identify platforms, devices, or functions that are not supported by Snap Creator
4.1, or that do not work correctly with Snap Creator. Review these limitations carefully.
The following list specifies which functions Snap Creator does not support :
• Snap Creator does not create or manage SnapVault and SnapMirror relationships. >> known, not the issue
• Snap Creator does not support the following on clustered Data ONTAP 8.1:
◦ OnCommand Unified Manager server as a proxy
◦ Consistency group Snapshot
• Snap Creator does not support vCenter heartbeat and linked mode.
• Snap Creator does not support the Fujitsu Data ONTAP-v platform.
• Consistency group Snapshot with vFilers is not supported.
• The Infinite Volumes feature for clustered Data ONTAP is not supported.
• Clustered Data ONTAP and Data ONTAP operating in 7-Mode do not support backup on
Snaplock Volume.
• Snap Creator does not support SnapVault operation on secondary clones. >> for me another feature, than qtree-snapvault
• Snap Creator does not support the following Data ONTAP features and functionality:
◦ Volume compression
◦ Deduplication
◦ Infinite volume
◦ Load Sharing Mirror (LSM)
◦ Performing SnapMirror between 7-Mode and clustered Data ONTAP (TDP)
◦ Performing SnapMirror on qtree >> stated for SnapMirror but no mention to SnapVault
• OSSV is only supported with Snap Creator Agent, and is recommended to enable the Agent. The
following OSSV features and functionality are not supported:
◦ Restore for OSSV (primary and secondary)
◦ OSSV with DFM proxy
◦ OSSV with OnCommand Unified Manager Core Package 5.1 and 5.2, which includes the
NetApp Management Console protection and provisioning capabilities
◦ OSSV volumes (primary and secondary) LUN clone and Volume clone operations
◦ Performing with clustered Data ONTAP
◦ Performing with the VOLUME_GROUPS parameter
• VOLUME_GROUPS is only supported for backup operations. The following
VOLUME_GROUPS parameter features and functionality are not supported:
◦ Use with LUN clone and Volume clone operations
◦ Use with primary and secondary clone operations
◦ Performing with OnCommand Unified Manager
Freundliche Grüsse / Kind Regards

Stefan,
I agree that it should be clearer, but I verified - It's in the release notes.
From the link above click the release notes link: http://support.netapp.com/NOW/download/software/snapcreator_framework/4.1/
Direct link: https://library-int.corp.netapp.com/ecm/ecm_get_file/ECMP1305840
Go to Page 11 - Known Limitations.
Listed as the last bullet under:
Snap Creator does not support the following Data ONTAP features and functionality:
Performing SnapMirror on qtree
Note: deduplication and compression are listed in the release notes just because there aren't a full suite of QA test cases around them. I asked for test cases including failure cases with clear error messages. Since these don't yet exist they were listed as a doc issue and added to the release notes.
Sorry for the trouble.
John
