Applies to
- SnapMirror
- ONTAP 9
- FlexGroup
Issue
- The SnapMirror FlexGroup volume relationship failed to initialize, and ONTAP reported the following error message:
System busy: 7 requests on table "xc_retrieve_src_cg_info" have been pending for 780067 seconds. The last completed call took 0 seconds.
- Deleting the SnapMirror relationship or deleting the destination volume and recreating all does not solve the problem.
- FlexVol SnapMirror can be successfully created
- Creating a new FlexGroup volume on both source and destination and creating SnapMirror also fails
- Existing FlexGroup SnapMirror relationship can still be updated normally
- Moving the volume to other nodes does not solve the problem
