PATCH /snapmirror/relationships/{uuid}

Introduced In: 9.6

Updates a SnapMirror relationship. This API is used to initiate SnapMirror operations such as "initialize", "resync", "break", "quiesce", and "resume" by specifying the appropriate value for the "state" field. It is also used to modify the SnapMirror policy associated with the specified relationship. Additionally, a SnapMirror relationship can be failed over to the destination endpoint or a failed over SnapMirror relationship can be failed back to the original state or a SnapMirror relationship direction can be reversed using this API. This API can also be used to expand the SnapMirror active sync relationship with the specified source and destination volumes.

To initialize the relationship, PATCH the state to "snapmirrored" for relationships with a policy of type "async" or "in_sync" for relationships with a policy of type "sync".

To break the relationship or to failover to the destination endpoint and start serving data from the destination endpoint, PATCH the state to "broken_off" for relationships with a policy of type "async" or "sync". SnapMirror relationships with the policy type as "sync" and sync_type as "automated_failover" cannot be "broken_off".

To resync the broken relationship, PATCH the state to "snapmirrored" for relationships with a policy of type "async" or "in_sync" for relationships with a policy of type "sync".

To failback the failed over relationship and start serving data from the source endpoint, PATCH the state to "snapmirrored" for relationships with a policy of type "async" or "in_sync" for relationships with a policy of type "sync" and set the query flag "failback" as "true". SnapMirror relationships with the policy type as "sync" and sync_type as "automated_failover" can be in "broken_off" state due to a failed attempt of automated SnapMirror failover operation.

To pause the relationship, suspending further transfers, PATCH the state to "paused" for relationships with a policy of type "async" or "sync". SnapMirror relationships with the policy type as "sync" and sync_type as "automated_failover" cannot be "paused".

To resume transfers for a paused relationship, PATCH the state to "snapmirrored" for relationships with a policy of type "async" or "in_sync" for relationships with a policy of type "sync".

To reverse the direction of the relationship, PATCH the "source.path" with the destination endpoint and the "destination.path" with the source endpoint and the relationship state to "snapmirrored" for relationships with a policy of type "async" or "in_sync" for relationships with a policy of type "sync". For relationships with a policy of type "async" and relationship state as "snapmirrored", stop IO on the source endpoint and perform a SnapMirror transfer POST operation before reversing the direction of the relationship to prevent any loss of data.

The values "in_sync", "out_of_sync", and "synchronizing" are only applicable to relationships with a policy of type "sync".

When "transfer_schedule" is specified along with "state" during PATCH, first the schedule is modified on the relationship and then the respective SnapMirror operation is initiated. The "transfer_schedule" specified is used to update asynchronous relationships.

When "throttle" is specified along with "state" during PATCH, first the throttle is modified on the relationship, which will be used by any upcoming transfers and then the respective SnapMirror operation is initiated. If the SnapMirror operation initiated a transfer then it will also use the new throttle. If "throttle" needs to be applied for a specific transfer use SnapMirror Transfer REST API.

For SnapMirror active sync relationships, when "consistency_group_volumes" is specified during PATCH, first the existing FlexVol volume relationship is deleted and released and then the volumes are added to the SnapMirror active sync relationship.

The policy cannot be changed if the policy has an "archive.after_days" value of "0" and the new policy does not have an "archive.after_days" value of "0".

Examples

  • snapmirror modify

  • snapmirror initialize

  • snapmirror resync

  • snapmirror break

  • snapmirror quiesce

  • snapmirror resume

Important notes

  • The property "transfer_schedule" if set on a SnapMirror relationship overrides the "transfer_schedule" set on the policy being used with the SnapMirror relationship.

  • The property "throttle" if set on a SnapMirror relationship overrides the "throttle" set on the policy being used with the SnapMirror relationship.

  • The properties "transfer_schedule" and "throttle" are not supported when "failback" is set to "true".

  • The properties "transfer_schedule" and "throttle" are not supported when "failover" is set to "true".

  • The properties "transfer_schedule" and "throttle" are not supported when "force_failover" is set to "true".

  • The properties "transfer_schedule" and "throttle" are not supported when the direction of the relationship is being reversed.

  • To remove a transfer_schedule on a SnapMirror relationship set the "transfer_schedule" to null (no-quotes) during SnapMirror relationship PATCH.

  • The property "identity_preservation" value can be changed from a higher "identity_preservation" threshold value to a lower "identity_preservation" threshold value but not vice-versa. For example, the threshold value of the "identity_preservation" property can be changed from "full" to "exclude_network_config", but cannot be increased from "exclude_network_and_protocol_config" to "exclude_network_config" to "full". The threshold value of the "identity_preservation" cannot be changed to "exclude_network_and_protocol_config" for IDP SVMDR.

  • Policies with property "network_compression_enabled" to "true" cannot be used in the creation of SnapMirror relationships having object store endpoints.

  • Policies with property "retention.creation_schedule" cannot be used in the creation of SnapMirror relationships having object store endpoints.

  • Policies with the property "snapshot_lock_mode" set to "compliance" or "enterprise" can only be used for SnapMirror relationships having a source endpoint as a FlexVol volume and a destination endpoint as an object store.

  • The property "backoff_level" is only applicable for FlexVol SnapMirror relationships.

Examples

The following examples show how to perform the SnapMirror "resync", "initialize", "resume", "quiesce", and "break" operations. In addition, a relationship can be failed over to the destination endpoint and start serving data from the destination endpoint. A failed over relationship can be failed back to the source endpoint and serve data from the source endpoint. Also a relationship can be reversed by making the source endpoint as the new destination endpoint and the destination endpoint as the new source endpoint.

a|SnapMirror relationship UUID


|failover
|boolean
|query
|False
a|If this parameter is set, validation and failover will occur to the SVM-DR SnapMirror relationship destination endpoint. Any other fields specified with this parameter will be ignored. This parameter is supported only for SVM-DR SnapMirror relationships.

* Introduced in: 9.7
* Default value:


|force-failover
|boolean
|query
|False
a|If this parameter is set, failover will occur to the SVM-DR SnapMirror relationship destination endpoint, overriding the validation errors. Any other fields specified with this parameter will be ignored. This parameter is supported only for SVM-DR SnapMirror relationships.

* Introduced in: 9.7
* Default value:


|force
|boolean
|query
|False
a|If this parameter is set while specifying the state as "broken_off", indicates a forced failover overriding the validation errors.

* Introduced in: 9.8
* Default value:


|failback
|boolean
|query
|False
a|If this parameter is set while specifying the state as "snapmirrored", indicates recovery of the failed over SnapMirror relationship by preserving the data written on the destination endpoint when the SnapMirror relationship was in failed over state. This flag is only applicable to SVM-DR SnapMirror relationships.

* Introduced in: 9.8
* Default value:


|return_timeout
|integer
|query
|False

If a non-zero value is specified for POST, PATCH, or DELETE operations, ONTAP waits that length of time to see if the job completes so it can return something other than 202.

* Default value: 1
* Max value: 120
* Min value: 0


|validate_only
|boolean
|query
|False
a|Validate the operation and its parameters, without actually performing the operation.

|string
a|Specifies the SnapMirror backoff level due to Client Ops for FlexVol SnapMirror relationships.


|consistency_group_failover
|link:#snapmirror_consistency_group_failover[snapmirror_consistency_group_failover]
a|SnapMirror Consistency Group failover information. The SnapMirror Consistency Group failover can be a planned or an unplanned operation. Only active SnapMirror Consistency Group failover operation progress can be monitored using this object. In case of an error during the failover operation, the property "consistency_group_failover.error" holds the reason for the error. ONTAP automatically retries any failed SnapMirror Consistency Group failover operation.

* Introduced in: 9.8
* readOnly: 1


|create_destination
|link:#snapmirror_destination_creation[snapmirror_destination_creation]
a|Use this object to provision the destination endpoint when establishing a SnapMirror relationship for a FlexVol volume, FlexGroup volume, SVM, Consistency Group or ONTAP S3 Bucket. Given a source endpoint, the destination endpoint is provisioned in the SVM specified in the "destination.path" property. While protecting an SVM, the SVM destination endpoint can only be provisioned on the local cluster. To provision the SVM destination endpoint use the optional "source.cluster.name" property to specify the remote cluster name or use the optional "source.cluster.uuid" property to specify the remote cluster UUID. When "create_destination.enabled" option is specified while making a POST for a SnapMirror relationship, the relationship can be automatically initialized by setting the "state" either to "snapmirrored" when the policy is of type "async" or to "in_sync" when the policy is of type "sync". The "destination.path" property must specify the destination endpoint path. For example, for FlexVol volume and FlexGroup volume, the "destination.path" can be specified as +++<destination-SVM-name:dp-volume-name>+++, for SVM data protection, the "destination.path" must be specified as <destination-SVM-name:>, and for Consistency Group, the "destination.path" must be specified as <destination-SVM-name:/cg/consistency-group-name> along with the "destination.consistency_group_volumes" property to indicate the list of destination volumes of type "DP" in the Consistency Group. For a FlexVol volume, a FlexGroup volume, Consistency Group or a Bucket destination endpoint, the properties in this object can be specified either from the source or the destination cluster. For an SVM destination endpoint, the properties in this object can be specified from the destination cluster only. This object is not supported for non ONTAP endpoints. While protecting a S3 Bucket, the optional "size" property can be used to create ONTAP S3 Bucket destination endpoint of the specified size.+++</destination-SVM-name:dp-volume-name>+++

* x-ntap-createOnly: true


|destination
|link:#snapmirror_endpoint[snapmirror_endpoint]
a|Endpoint of a SnapMirror relationship. For a GET request, the property "cluster" is populated when the endpoint is on a remote cluster. A POST request to create the destination SVM endpoint or to establish an SVM DR relationship must have the property "cluster" populated with the remote cluster details. A POST request to create the destination FlexVol volume, FlexGroup volume, Consistency Group, ONTAP S3 bucket and NON-ONTAP object-store endpoints can optionally specify the "cluster" property when the source SVM and the destination SVM are peered. A POST request to establish a SnapMirror relationship between the source endpoint and destination endpoint and when the source SVM and the destination SVM are not peered, must specify the "cluster" property for the remote endpoint.

This restores all destination FlexGroup constituent volumes to the latest Snapshot copy, and any writes to the read-write constituents are lost. This property is applicable only for SnapMirror relationships with FlexGroup volume endpoints and when the PATCH state is being changed to "broken_off".


|restore
|boolean
a|Set to true to create a relationship for restore. To trigger restore-transfer, use transfers POST on the restore relationship. SnapMirror relationships with the policy type "async" can be restored. SnapMirror relationships with the policy type "sync" cannot be restored.

To resync the relationship, PATCH the state to "snapmirrored" for relationships with a policy of type "async" or to state "in_sync" for relationships with a policy of type "sync". SnapMirror relationships with the policy type as "sync" and "sync_type" as "automated_failover" can be in "broken_off" state due to a failed attempt of SnapMirror failover.
To pause the relationship, suspending further transfers, PATCH the state to "paused" for relationships with a policy of type "async" or "sync". SnapMirror relationships with the policy type as "sync" and "sync_type" as "automated_failover" cannot be "paused".
To resume transfers for a paused relationship, PATCH the state to "snapmirrored" for relationships with a policy of type "async" or to state "in_sync" for relationships with a policy of type "sync".
The entries "in_sync", "out_of_sync", "synchronizing", and "expanding" are only applicable to relationships with a policy of type "sync". A PATCH call on the state change only triggers the transition to the specified state. You must poll on the "state", "healthy" and "unhealthy_reason" properties using a GET request to determine if the transition is successful. To automatically initialize the relationship when specifying "create_destination" property, set the state to "snapmirrored" for relationships with a policy of type "async" or to state "in_sync" for relationships with a policy of type "sync".
