A peer relationship defines network connections that enable clusters and storage virtual machine (VM) to exchange data securely. Create peer relationships between storage VMs on different clusters to enable data protection and disaster recovery using SnapMirror.

Before you begin

You must have established a cluster peer relationship between the local and remote clusters before you can create a storage VM peer relationship. Create a cluster peer relationship if you have not already done so.

  1. In System Manager, select Protection > Overview.

  2. Under Storage VM peers select Add a storage VM peer.

  3. Select the storage VM on the local cluster; then select the storage VM on the remote cluster.

  4. Select Add a storage VM peer.
