Answer
Yes, Tamperproof snapshots / snapshot locking supports SVM DR.
Tamper-proof Snapshot copy support
ONTAP 9.12.1 has added support for tamper-proof Snapshot™ copies, and with that, the ability to replicate the copies using SnapMirror.
- SnapMirror will replicate tamper-proof Snapshot copies using the same replication policy engine as non-tamper-proof Snapshot copies.
- You can change existing Snapshot policies – with existing SnapMirror labels – to tamper-proof or create new Snapshot policies using the tamper-proof designation…your choice…and SnapMirror will replicate them based on the replication rules in your SnapMirror protection policies.
- This applies to individual volume relationships as well as volumes that are part of an SVM DR relationship.
