Why are changes to the source volume size or autogrow not replicated to the destination?
Applies to
- ONTAP 9
- Snapmirror XDP
- SVM DR
Question
- Why does Destination volume does not autogrow automatically the same as the source volume?
- Why does changes to the source volume autogrow settings does not automatically reflect on the destination volume?
Answer
- In type-XDP SnapMirror relationship:
- ONTAP handles the Source volume and the Destination volume independently when configuring the volume size
- Autosize settings are also independent between source and destination
Example:max-autosize, min-autosize, autosize-grow-threshold-percent, autosize-shrink-threshold-percent and autosize-mode
