Creating a SnapMirror protection relationship from the Health: All Volumes view
Using the Health: All Volumes view enables you to create several SnapMirror protection relationships at one time by selecting more than one volume on the same storage VM.
- You must have the Application Administrator or Storage Administrator role.
- You must have set up Workflow Automation.
The Protect menu does not display in the following instances:
- If RBAC settings do not allow this action: for example, if you have only operator privileges
- When the volume ID is unknown: for example, when you have an intercluster relationship and the destination cluster has not yet been discovered
Depending on the destination SVM you specified during configuration or on the options you enabled in your Advanced settings, the resulting SnapMirror relationship might be one of several possible variations:
- If you specified a destination SVM that runs under the same or a newer version of ONTAP compared to that of the source volume, a block-replication-based SnapMirror relationship is the default result.
- If you specified a destination SVM that runs under the same or a newer version of ONTAP (9.4 or later) compared to that of the source volume, but you enabled version-flexible replication in the Advanced settings, a SnapMirror relationship with version-flexible replication is the result.
- If you specified a destination SVM that runs under an earlier version of ONTAP or a later version than that of the source volume, and the earlier version supports version-flexible replication, a SnapMirror relationship with version-flexible replication is the automatic result.
