Answer

During SnapMirror operations such as resync, quiesce, and break, the following statuses can be observed:

  • SnapMirror Resync Command: 
    • Queued: The transfer operation has been accepted and queued in the system. 
    • Preparing: Pre-transfer phase for incremental transfers. 
    • Transferring: A transfer operation is in progress. 
    • Finalizing: Post-transfer phase for incremental transfers. 
    • Idle: No transfer operation is in progress and future transfers are not disabled.
  • SnapMirror Quiesce Command: 
    • Quiescing: A transfer operation is in progress and future transfers are disabled. 
    • Quiesced: No transfer operation is in progress and future transfers are disabled.
  • SnapMirror Break Command: 
    • Breaking: The SnapMirror relationship is being broken off and no transfer is in progress. 
    • Idle: No transfer operation is in progress and future transfers are not disabled.
    • Queued : 
      • The Queued status is typically not observed for quiesce and break commands as they are usually executed immediately. 
      • However, if other operations are running concurrently or the system is under high load, these commands might enter the Queued state.
