Issue:
After executing the snapmirror failover start
command, the output for the snapmirror failover show
command displays a message indicating that Mediator is not configured.
Example:
Cluster1::> snapmirror failover show Source Destination Error Path Path Type Status start-time end-time Reason -------- ----------- -------- --------- ---------- ---------- ---------- vs0:/cg/cg vs1:/cg/cg planned failed 10/1/2020 10/1/2020 SnapMirror failover cannot start because the source-side precheck failed. reason: Mediator not configured. 05:50:42 05:50:43
Cause:
Mediator is not configured or there are network connectivity issues.
Solution:
If Mediator is not configured, you must configure Mediator before you can establish an SM-BC relationship. Fix any network connectivity issues. Make sure Mediator is connected and quorum status is true on both the source and destination site using the snapmirror mediator show command.
Example:
cluster::> snapmirror mediator show Mediator Address Peer Cluster Connection Status Quorum Status ---------------- ---------------- ----------------- ------------- 10.234.10.143 cluster2 connected true
