Why is a destination volume on SVM DR smaller then its source volume
Applies to
- ONTAP 9.4+
- SVM DR
Answer
- As of ONTAP 9.4 onwards XDP has replaced DP as Relationship type for SVM DR
- a XDP Relationship type separates both source and destination Volumes size in 2 separate Entity's
- Due to this, when source volume size increases, destination volume size remain the same, unless auto size feature activates
