Removing the SnapMirror status entry after an SMTape restore

You can remove the SnapMirror status entry corresponding to the volume you restored.

1. To list the SnapMirror status entries, enter the following command:
   snapmirror status vol_name

   vol_name is the name of the volume that you restored.

   The SnapMirror status of the volume is displayed. In case of a successful SMTape restore, the source is a Snapshot copy with a name in the format snapshot_for_smtape.hexchar and the destination is the restored volume. The hexchar in the Snapshot copy name is a set of hexadecimal characters specific to that Snapshot copy. In case of a failed SMTape restore, the source is a tape device name and the destination is the volume that failed to restore.

2. To remove the SnapMirror status entry by releasing the SnapMirror relationship, enter one of the following commands:

   If the restore...	Then...
   Succeeded	To break the SnapMirror relationship, enter the following command: snapmirror break vol_name To remove the SnapMirror status entry, enter the following command: snap delete vol_name snapshot_for_smtape.hexadecimal_char
   Failed	Destroy the volume. Note: It is safe to destroy the volume because it is not useful due to the failed restore.
