Using SMTape for tape seeding is only supported for tape. When the smtape data stream is directed to disk, the baseline copy is written at a maximum of 5 MB/s For these reason, use of the -file-path option as an alternative to transferring SnapMirror data over the WAN is not recommended and is not supported.
