Cluster and SVM peering workflow
Suggest changes
You can set up a peering relationship by using the ONTAP System Manager with ONTAP 9.7 or earlier. Setting up a peering relationship involves preparing each cluster for peering, creating intercluster logical interfaces (LIFs) on each node of each cluster, setting up a cluster peer relationship, and then setting up an SVM peering relationship.
If you are running ONTAP 9.2 or earlier, you create an SVM peering relationship while creating a data protection relationship between the source volume and the destination volume.
