Configuring peer relationships (ONTAP 9.2 and earlier)
A peer relationship defines network connections that enable clusters and SVMs to exchange data securely. You must create a cluster peer relationship before you can create an SVM peer relationship.
Creating a cluster peer relationship (ONTAP 9.2 and earlier)
You can use the cluster peer create command to initiate a request for a peering relationship between a local and remote cluster. After the peer relationship has been requested by the local cluster, you can run cluster peer create on the remote cluster to accept the relationship.
Creating an intercluster SVM peer relationship (ONTAP 9.2 and earlier)
You can use the vserver peer create command to create a peer relationship between SVMs on local and remote clusters. After the peer relationship has been created, you can run vserver peer accept on the remote cluster to authorize the peer relationship.
