New Option For The Vfiler Dr Configure Command - IBM N Series Manual

New option for the vfiler dr configure command

Data ONTAP 8.0.3 and later provide a new option -u for the vfiler dr
configure command, which can be used to set up a disaster recovery vFiler
unit without reinitializing the existing SnapMirror relationship between the
source and destination storage systems.
If there is no SnapMirror relationship set between the source and destination
storage systems, and you run the vfiler dr configure command with the -u
option, then the SnapMirror relationship is in the uninitialized state. If you
run the vfiler dr activate command when the SnapMirror relationship is in
the uninitialized state, the activation of the disaster recovery vFiler unit fails.
To initialize the SnapMirror relationship between the source and destination
storage systems, you must run the vfiler dr resync command on the
destination storage system.
For more information about using this option, see the na_vfiler(1) man page.
