cdot snapvault example

setting up snapvault cmode example

1. create vserverA and vserverB
cl1::> vserver create vserverA -rootvolume roota -aggregate aggr1_n1 -ns-switch file -nm-switch file -rootvolume-security-style unix

cl1::> vserver create vserverB -rootvolume rootb -aggregate aggr1_n2 -ns-switch file -nm-switch file -rootvolume-security-style unix

for vserverA
2. create a source datavolume in vserverA
cl1::> vol create -vserver vserverA -volume datasource -aggregate aggr1_n1 -size 100m -state online

3. create a destination datavolume in vserverB with type DP
1::> vol create -vserver vserverB -volume datadest -aggregate aggr1_n2 -size 100m -type DP

Using the 5min schedule for snapshots on the source

Create new snapshot-policy for vserverA with the 5min schedule and a count of 2.
Also specify the snapmirror-label for the snapshots.
4. cl1::> volume snapshot policy create -vserver vserverA -policy 5minpol -enabled true -schedule1 5min -count1 2 -prefix1 5min -snapmirror-label1 vserverA-vault-5min

Connect snapshot-policy to the vserverA datasource volume.
5. cl1::> volume modify -vserver vserverA -volume datasource -snapshot-policy 5minpol

for vserverB.
Create snapmirror policy and rule
6. cl1::> snapmirror policy create -vserver vserverB -policy vserverA-vault
7. cl1::> snapmirror policy add-rule -vserver vserverB -policy vserverA-vault -snapmirror-label vserverA-vault-5min -keep 40

Setup a peer relationship
8. cl1::> vserver peer create -vserver vserverA -peer-vserver vserverB -applications snapmirror

Create the snapmirror relation
9. cl1::> snapmirror create -source-path vserverA:datasource -destination-path vserverB:datadest -type XDP -policy vserverA-vault -schedule 5min

Initialize.
10. cl1::> snapmirror initialize -destination-path vserverB:datadest

Monitor:
View the lag time.
cl1::> snapmirror show -destination-path vserverB:datadest -field lag

View the relationship
cl1::> snapmirror show

View the snapshots
cl1::> snapshot show -vserver vserverA -volume datasource -instance
cl1::> snapshot show -vserver vserverB -volume datadest
