Enable future transfers

Availability: This command is available to cluster and Vserver administrators at the admin privilege level.

Description

The snapmirror resume command enables future transfers for a SnapMirror relationship that has been quiesced.

If there is a scheduled transfer for the relationship, it will be triggered on the next schedule. If there is a restart checkpoint, it will be re-used if possible.

If applied on a load-sharing (LS) SnapMirror relationship, it enables future transfers for all the relationships in the load-sharing set.

If applied on a relationship with a policy of type strict-sync-mirror or sync-mirror , it enables future resync operations and initiates an Auto Resync.

When a quiesced SnapMirror relationship is resumed, future transfers remain enabled across reboots and fail-overs.

This command is supported for SnapMirror relationships with the field "Relationship Capability" showing as either "8.2 and above" or "Pre 8.2" in the output of the snapmirror show command.

The snapmirror resume command must be used from the destination Vserver or cluster.

The relationship must exist on the destination Vserver or cluster. When issuing snapmirror resume , you must specify the destination endpoint. The specification of the source endpoint of the relationship is optional.

Parameters

{ [-S, -source-path {<[vserver:][volume]>|<[[cluster:]//vserver/]volume>|<hostip:/lun/name>|<hostip:/share/share-name>|<[vserver:]/cg/[app-cgname]>}] - Source Path
| [-source-cluster <Cluster name>] - Source Cluster

Specifies the source cluster of the SnapMirror relationship. If this parameter is specified, the -source-vserver and -source-volume parameters must also be specified. This parameter is only applicable for relationships with "Relationship Capability" of "Pre 8.2" . This parameter cannot be specified when operating in a Vserver context on relationships with "Relationship Capability" of "8.2 and above" .

[-source-vserver <vserver name>] - Source Vserver

Specifies the source Vserver of the SnapMirror relationship. For relationships with volumes as endpoints, if this parameter is specified, parameters -source-volume and for relationships with "Relationship Capability" of "Pre 8.2" , -source-cluster must also be specified. This parameter is not supported for relationships with non-ONTAP source endpoints.

[-source-volume <volume name>] - Source Volume }

Specifies the source volume of the SnapMirror relationship. If this parameter is specified, parameters -source-vserver and for relationships with "Relationship Capability" of "Pre 8.2" , -source-cluster must also be specified. This parameter is not supported for relationships with non-ONTAP source endpoints.

{ -destination-path {<[vserver:][volume]>|<[[cluster:]//vserver/]volume>|<hostip:/lun/name>|<hostip:/share/share-name>|<[vserver:]/cg/[app-cgname]>} - Destination Path
| [-destination-cluster <Cluster name>] - Destination Cluster

Specifies the destination cluster of the SnapMirror relationship. If this parameter is specified, parameters -destination-vserver and -destination-volume must also be specified. This parameter is only applicable for relationships with "Relationship Capability" of "Pre 8.2" . This parameter cannot be specified when operating in a Vserver context on relationships with "Relationship Capability" of "8.2 and above" .

-destination-vserver <vserver name> - Destination Vserver

Specifies the destination Vserver of the SnapMirror relationship. For relationships with volumes as endpoints, if this parameter is specified, parameters -destination-volume and for relationships with "Relationship Capability" of "Pre 8.2" , -destination-cluster must also be specified. This parameter is not supported for relationships with non-ONTAP destination endpoints.

-destination-volume <volume name> - Destination Volume }

Specifies the destination volume of the SnapMirror relationship. If this parameter is specified, parameters -destination-vserver and for relationships with "Relationship Capability" of "Pre 8.2" , -destination-cluster must also be specified. This parameter is not supported for relationships with non-ONTAP destination endpoints.

Examples

To re-enable future transfers of the Application Consistency Group SnapMirror relationship with the destination Consistency Group app_cg_dst in Vserver vs2.example.com , type the following command:

vs2.example.com::> snapmirror resume -destination-path
            vs2.example.com:/cg/app_cg_dst
