This API is used to manage SnapMirror policies of type "async" and "sync". When applied to a SnapMirror relationship, the SnapMirror policy controls the behavior of the relationship and specifies the configuration attributes for that relationship. The policy type "async" can be associated with a SnapMirror relationship that has either the FlexVol volume or FlexGroup volume or SVM as the endpoint. The policy type "sync" can be associated with a SnapMirror relationship that has FlexVol volume or a Consistency Group as the endpoint. The policy type "sync" can have a "sync_type" of either "sync", "strict_sync" or "automated_failover". If the "sync_type" is "sync" then a write success is returned to the client after writing the data to the primary endpoint and before writing the data to the secondary endpoint. If the "sync_type" is "strict_sync" then a write success is returned to the client after writing the data to the both primary and secondary endpoints. The "sync_type" of "automated_failover" can be associated with a SnapMirror relationship that has Consistency Group as the endpoint.
