Issue

  • FlexGroup volume rebalancing will fail if snapshots are taken while the rebalancing operation is occurring. This includes both SnapMirror updates and scheduled snapshots.
  • An error is triggered during the volume rebalance operation:

::*> volume rebalance start -vserver svm1 -volume vol1 -max-runtime 6h -exclude-snapshots true

"The next scheduled snapmirror update for the volume "vol1" in SVM "svm1" is scheduled for Thu Mar 28 14:05:00 2024, in 0h53m43. This is within the specified 1h0m0s maximum runtime for the volume capacity rebalancing operation. "
