Issue:
After executing the snapmirror failover start command, the output for the snapmirror failover show command displays a message indicating that the ONTAP 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 the ONTAP Mediator is not configured, you must configure the ONTAP Mediator before you can establish a SnapMirror active sync 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. For more information, see Configure the ONTAP Mediator.
Example:
cluster::> snapmirror mediator show Mediator Address Peer Cluster Connection Status Quorum Status ---------------- ---------------- ----------------- ------------- 10.234.10.143 cluster2 connected true
