Name	Type	Description
_links	_links
archive	archive	Archive information for the objects in an object store SnapMirror relationship. This property is applicable only for "async" policies with "create_snapshot_on_source" set to "false".
comment	string	Comment associated with the policy.
copy_all_source_snapshots	boolean	Specifies that all the source Snapshot copies (including the one created by SnapMirror before the transfer begins) should be copied to the destination on a transfer. "Retention" properties cannot be specified along with this property. This is applicable only to async policies. Property can only be set to 'true'.
copy_latest_source_snapshot	boolean	Specifies that the latest source Snapshot copy (created by SnapMirror before the transfer begins) should be copied to the destination on a transfer. "Retention" properties cannot be specified along with this property. This is applicable only to async policies. Property can only be set to 'true'.
create_snapshot_on_source	boolean	Specifies whether a new Snapshot copy should be created on the source at the beginning of an update or resync operation. This is applicable only to async policies. Property can only be set to 'false'.
identity_preservation	string	Specifies which configuration of the source SVM is replicated to the destination SVM. This property is applicable only for SVM data protection with "async" policy type.
name	string	Name of the policy.
network_compression_enabled	boolean	Specifies whether network compression is enabled for transfers. This is applicable only to the policies of type "async".
retention	array[snapmirror_policy_rule]	Rules for Snapshot copy retention.
rpo	integer	Specifies the duration of time for which a change to be propagated to a mirror should be delayed, in seconds. This is an intentional propagation delay between mirrors and is configurable down to zero, which means an immediate propagation. This is supported for policies of type 'continuous'.
scope	string	Set to "svm" for policies owned by an SVM, otherwise set to "cluster".
snapshot_lock_mode	string	Specifies the lock mode of the Snapshot copies stored in the object store. This property is applicable only to policies of type "async" with "create_snapshot_on_source" set to "false". When set to enterprise or compliance, the policy can be associated only with SnapMirror relationships where the source endpoint is a FlexVol volume and the destination endpoint is an object store. When set to compliance, no users can delete a Snapshot copy until the retention period has expired. When set to enterprise, users that have special permissions can delete a Snapshot copy before the retention period has expired.
svm	svm	SVM, applies only to SVM-scoped objects.
sync_common_snapshot_schedule	sync_common_snapshot_schedule	Schedule used to create common Snapshot copies for synchronous relationships.
sync_type	string
throttle	integer	Throttle in KB/s. Default to unlimited.
transfer_schedule	transfer_schedule	The schedule used to update asynchronous relationships. Only cron schedules are supported for SnapMirror.
type	string
uuid	string	Unique identifier of the SnapMirror policy.

archive

Archive information for the objects in an object store SnapMirror relationship. This property is applicable only for "async" policies with "create_snapshot_on_source" set to "false".

Name	Type	Description
after_days	integer	Number of days after which the objects are archived. This is only applicable when "archive.enabled" is "true". If this property is not set when "archive.enabled" is "true", the default value is "0" and therefore archiving will be triggered instantly. The value range is 0..999. If the value is set to "0", the latest snapshot copy will be archived. The value of after_days cannot be changed from "0" if any FlexVol SnapMirror relationship is associated with the policy.
enabled	boolean	When set to "true", the objects are archived. When set to "false", the objects are not archived.

after_days

integer

Number of days after which the objects are archived. This is only applicable when "archive.enabled" is "true". If this property is not set when "archive.enabled" is "true", the default value is "0" and therefore archiving will be triggered instantly. The value range is 0..999. If the value is set to "0", the latest snapshot copy will be archived. The value of after_days cannot be changed from "0" if any FlexVol SnapMirror relationship is associated with the policy.

enabled

boolean

When set to "true", the objects are archived. When set to "false", the objects are not archived.

Schedule used to create Snapshot copies on the destination for long term retention. Only cron schedules are supported for SnapMirror.

snapmirror_policy_rule

SnapMirror policy rule for retention.

Name	Type	Description
count	integer	Number of Snapshot copies to be kept for retention. Maximum value will differ based on type of relationship and scaling factor. For normal SnapMirror relationship without Snapshot copy scaling enabled maximum value can be 251 and with Snapshot copy scaling enabled it can be 1019. For object store SnapMirror relationships maximum value can be 4091.
creation_schedule	creation_schedule	Schedule used to create Snapshot copies on the destination for long term retention. Only cron schedules are supported for SnapMirror.
label	string	Snapshot copy label
period	string	Specifies the duration for which the Snapshot copies are locked. The retention period value represents a duration and must be in the ISO-8601 duration format. Years, months, days, hours, minutes, and seconds are represented as "PY","PM","PD","PTH","PTM" and "PTS". Value "infinite" is also a valid input for Flexvol volumes and FlexGroup volumes. A duration which combines different periods is not supported, for example "P1Y10M" is not supported. The range of supported retention period values is between 1 second to infinite. Object store destinations support values only in years, months, or days and between 30 days and 100 years.
prefix	string	Specifies the prefix for the Snapshot copy name to be created as per the schedule. If no value is specified, then the label is used as the prefix.
preserve	boolean	Specifies the behavior when the Snapshot copy retention count is reached on the SnapMirror destination for the rule. The default value is false, which means that the oldest Snapshot copy is deleted to make room for new ones but only if the number of Snapshot copies has exceeded the retention count specified in the 'count' property. When set to true and where the Snapshot copies have reached the retention count, an incremental SnapMirror transfer will fail or if the rule has a schedule, Snapshot copies will be no longer be created on the SnapMirror destination.
warn	integer	Specifies the warning threshold count for the rule. The default value is zero. When set to a value greater than zero, an event is generated after the number of Snapshot copies (for the particular rule) retained on a SnapMirror destination reaches the specified warning limit. The preserve property for the rule must be true in order to set the warn property to a value greater than zero.

creation_schedule

Schedule used to create Snapshot copies on the destination for long term retention. Only cron schedules are supported for SnapMirror.

label

string

Snapshot copy label

period

string

Specifies the duration for which the Snapshot copies are locked. The retention period value represents a duration and must be in the ISO-8601 duration format. Years, months, days, hours, minutes, and seconds are represented as "PY","PM","PD","PTH","PTM" and "PTS". Value "infinite" is also a valid input for Flexvol volumes and FlexGroup volumes.

Object store destinations support values only in years, months, or days and between 30 days and 100 years.

prefix

string

Specifies the prefix for the Snapshot copy name to be created as per the schedule. If no value is specified, then the label is used as the prefix.

preserve

boolean

Specifies the behavior when the Snapshot copy retention count is reached on the SnapMirror destination for the rule. The default value is false, which means that the oldest Snapshot copy is deleted to make room for new ones but only if the number of Snapshot copies has exceeded the retention count specified in the 'count' property. When set to true and where the Snapshot copies have reached the retention count, an incremental SnapMirror transfer will fail or if the rule has a schedule, Snapshot copies will be no longer be created on the SnapMirror destination.

warn

integer

Specifies the warning threshold count for the rule. The default value is zero. When set to a value greater than zero, an event is generated after the number of Snapshot copies (for the particular rule) retained on a SnapMirror destination reaches the specified warning limit. The preserve property for the rule must be true in order to set the warn property to a value greater than zero.
