Before creating a new volume for Snapshot copy retention, you need to ensure that all the files in the old volume are in the Idle and the snapvaulted state.
If... | Then... |
---|---|
The volume is in this state | Go to Step 3. |
The volume is not in this state, but transfers are proceeding normally | Wait for the transfers to finish and then repeat this step. |
Transfers are not proceeding or completed | Go to Step 2. |
You need to perform this step because occasionally, the snapvault status command might show a relationship for which there is no permanent configuration information.
You should see a one-to-one correspondence. If any relationships are missing, make the output from the two commands consistent.
The snapvault stop command destroys the relationship.
Check the base Snapshot copy listed for each qtree in the destination volume to ensure that they refer to the same Snapshot copy.
If... | Then... |
---|---|
They refer to the same Snapshot copy | You are finished. |
They do not refer to the same Snapshot copy | Go to Step 4. |
sec_vol is the current secondary volume.
" " specifies that no snapvault snap sched Snapshot copy is created.
