smc.snapmir.dst.invalidType

Severity

ERROR

Description

This message occurs when the destination volume of a SnapMirror® relationship is not of -type Data Protection (DP) and a 'snapmirror initialize' operation is attempted. A volume must be of -type DP to accept a 'snapmirror initialize' operation.

Corrective Action

Use a different volume of -type DP, or use the 'volume create' command to create a new volume of -type DP to use as a destination of the SnapMirror relationship. You cannot modify the type of a volume using the 'volume modify' command.

Syslog Message

Destination volume '%s' of a SnapMirror relationship is not of -type DP. Relationship UUID '%s'.

Parameters

dstpath (STRING): Path name of the destination volume of the SnapMirror relationship.
relationshipID (STRING): UUID of the snapmirror relationship.

smc.snapmir.frest.clean.fail

Severity

ERROR

Description

This message occurs when SnapMirror® fails to clean up fenced files and file restore restartability information on a volume and no more retries will be attempted.

Corrective Action

Check the reason for the error, take action accordingly and issue 'snapmirror restore -file-restore-clean-up true' on the volume in diagnostic mode.

Syslog Message

File restore clean up on volume '%s' failed with error '%s'.

Parameters

dstpath (STRING): Path name of the volume.
error (STRING): Error message.

smc.snapmir.init.fail

Severity

ERROR

Description

This message occurs when a SnapMirror® 'initialize' command fails and no more retries will be attempted.

Corrective Action

Check the reason for the error, take action accordingly, and issue the command again.

Syslog Message

Initialize from source volume '%s' to destination volume '%s' failed with error '%s'. Relationship UUID '%s'.

Parameters

srcpath (STRING): Path name of the source volume of the SnapMirror relationship.
dstpath (STRING): Path name of the destination volume to which the initialize failed.
error (STRING): Error message.
relationshipID (STRING): Relationship UUID.

smc.snapmir.lrb.auto.resync

Severity

INFORMATIONAL

Description

This message occurs when the latest Snapshot® copy on the SnapMirror® or SnapVault® destination is not the base Snapshot copy and the source volume is read-only. Generally this is a rare event and a local-rollback-based SnapMirror resync will be attempted to automatically recover from this situation. If this event occurs frequently, it is likely that the Snapshot policy on the primary volume in the cascade is deleting Snapshot copies too soon.

Corrective Action

Check the Snapshot policy on the primary (read-write) volume and increase the retention count of the Snapshot copies that must be backed up all the way to the destination.

Syslog Message

Latest Snapshot copy %s on the destination %s is not the base Snapshot copy. Attempting a local rollback based SnapMirror resync to correct this issue.

Parameters

snap_name (STRING): Name of the latest Snapshot copy on the SnapMirror or SnapVault destination.
dst_path (STRING): Destination volume of the SnapMirror/SnapVault relationship.

smc.snapmir.partnr.noconnect

Severity

ERROR

Description

This message occurs when a SnapMirror® Sync relationship cannot detect the heartbeat signal from the partner node.

Corrective Action

Syslog Message

Source volume "%s" and destination volume "%s" with relationship UUID "%s" lost heartbeat to partner node.

Parameters

srcpath (STRING): Path name of the source volume of the SnapMirror relationship.
dstpath (STRING): Path name of the destination volume of the SnapMirror relationship.
relationship_id (STRING): Relationship UUID.
