5.3 Remove a SnapMirror Relationship Removing a SnapMirror relationship is the same as deleting a relationship when the destination is a system other than ONTAP. When a relationship is deleted, the data is retained in the shares on the AltaVault appliance. To remove the data on the AltaVault appliance, delete the Snapshot copies using the AltaVault UI or CLI and then delete the share established by the SnapMirror relationship. After Snapshot copies are deleted, the metadata is removed immediately. Freeing up data is done by asynchronous processes in the AltaVault appliance. Because the data is stored deduplicated, processes must run to determine the references to data, then perform a separate removal of unreferenced data in cache and a separate operation to clean up unreferenced data in cloud. 46 AltaVault with ONTAP SnapMirror © 2017 NetApp, Inc.
