What configuration objects are automatically synchronized across MetroCluster sites?
Applies to
- Metocluster
- NetApp Ontap
Answer
Configuration replication can vary by feature and, in some cases, by individual attributes within different configuration tables.
Cluster-level Configurations:
Are generally not automatically synchronized between sites and must be configured independently on each site.
Examples Include:
- IPspaces
- Broadcast domains
- Failover groups
- Subnets
- VLANs
- Interface groups (ifgrps)
- Cluster management network settings
- BGP configuration
- NTP
- SNMP
- Autosupport
SVM-level configurations:
Are generally synchronized between sites for MetroCluster-eligible data SVM replicas. This does not apply to admin SVMs or cluster SVMs.
Examples Include:
- SVM configuration
- Data LIFs
- Volumes
- SMB/CIFS shares
- Export policies
- Export policy rules
- NFS-related settings
- Snapshot schedules
Additional Information
- Configuration replication can vary by feature and by individual attributes within specific configuration tables.
