A peer relationship defines network connections that enable clusters and storage virtual machine (VM) to exchange data securely. You can create a peer relationship 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.

Steps

  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.
