Can we create SnapMirror between Qtree and volume?
Applies to
ONTAP 9
Answer
- Qtrees are special directories that allow the application of quotas for NAS file system.
- ONTAP allows creation of qtrees, and qtrees exists inside the volumes.
- In Cluster Mode, SnapMirror does not allow replication of individual qtrees or qtree-level replication.
- Only Volumes can be replicated with SnapMirror.
- XCP or ndmpcopy can be used for qtree level Backup.
