Why is the SnapMirror resync transfer time so long?
Applies to
- ONTAP 9
- SnapMirror XDP
Answer
It is normal behavior for some SnapMirror transfers to take longer than expected. Typically, longer transfers are the result of:
- The snapshot delta size between Transfer and Newest is large.
- The SnapMirror resync operation needs to transfer the Data Warehouse metadata.
