Displays history of SnapMirror operations.

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

Description

The snapmirror show-history command displays the history of SnapMirror operations. This command is not supported for relationships with non-Data ONTAP endpoints.

By default, the command displays the following information:

  • Destination Path

  • Source Path

  • Operation

  • Start Time

  • End Time

  • Result

The snapmirror show-history command displays - in reverse chronological order - the history of completed SnapMirror operations whose destination endpoints are in the current Vserver for Vserver administrators, or the current cluster for cluster administrators. This command does not return information on the following operations and relationships:

  • Operations that happened prior to installing Data ONTAP 8.3.

  • Relationships with the "Relationship Capability" field, as shown in the output of the SnapMirror show command, set to "Pre 8.2" .

  • Operations on FlexGroup relationships that happened prior to installing Data ONTAP 9.5.

  • Operations on FlexGroup constituent relationships.

The -instance parameter displays the following detailed information:

             Destination Path: Path of the destination endpoint.
                  Source Path: Path of the source endpoint.
              Relationship ID: The unique identifier of the relationship.
                               This parameter is not supported for
                               Vserver SnapMirror relationships.
      Relationship Group Type: For FlexVol relationships, specifies the
                               type of the group relationship that
                               includes this FlexVol. For group
                               relationships, specifies the type of the
                               group relationship. Can be one of the
                               following:
                               - none: No group relationship.
                               - vserver: Vserver relationship.
                               - flexgroup: FlexGroup relationship.
                    Operation: Type of the operation.
                               Can be one of the following:

                       Result: Result of the SnapMirror operation.
                               Can be one of the following:
                               - success
                               - failure
                Transfer Size: Total amount of data transferred during the
                               SnapMirror operation.
       Additional Information: A message describing the cause of the
                               failure or additional information about a
                               successful operation, such as if a checkpoint
                               was cleared as part of an abort operation.
