Issue:
The SnapMirror release operation fails when the Snapshot copy cannot be deleted.
Solution:
The Snapshot copy contains a transient tag. Use the snapshot delete
command with the -ignore-owners
option to remove the transient Snapshot copy.
snapshot delete -volume <volume_name> -snapshot <snapshot_name> -ignore-owners true -force true
Retry the snapmirror release
command.
