Re: Replace DFM behaviour

Hey Serge,

 

What version of ONTAP are you currently running?

 

Starting in 8.3, you have the ability to use XDP relationships (SnapVault) in the same manner in which you used it before.  Moreover, cDOT now applies the SnapMirror and SnapVault configurations via policy.  So you configure a policy with the options you have listed (7 daily, 5 weekly, 13 monthly) and then apply that policy to the SnapVault relationships for all of those volumes.

You may (per your comment) want to look into using PowerShell to apply the policy to the volumes/relationships.  But you could use OnCommand Unified Manager to monitor the relationships and lag times.

 

Unfortunately, Protection Manager (the part of DFM you're referencing) is no longer in play.  If you want something similar, you might try looking at either SnapCreator or even WFA which now has some scheduling capabilities.

 

Hope that helps.
