Verifying cluster peer relationship and SVM peer relationship

Before you set up a volume for data protection by using SnapVault technology, you must verify that the source cluster and destination cluster are peered and are communicating with each other through the peer relationship. You must also verify that the source SVM and destination SVM are peered and are communicating with each other through the peer relationship.

1. Verify that the cluster peer relationship was created: cluster peer show -instance

   Example

   Cluster1::> cluster peer show -instance
   
                                  Peer Cluster Name: cluster02
                      Remote Intercluster Addresses: 192.140.112.101, 192.140.112.102
                 Availability of the Remote Cluster: Available
                                Remote Cluster Name: cluster2
                                Active IP Addresses: 192.140.112.101, 192.140.112.102
                              Cluster Serial Number: 1-80-123456
                     Address Family of Relationship: ipv4
               Authentication Status Administrative: no-authentication
                  Authentication Status Operational: absent
                                   Last Update Time: 02/05 21:05:41
                       IPspace for the Relationship: Default
   
   
2. You can also view the status of the SVM peer relationship and the applications running on the peer relationship.

   • View the details of the SVM peer relationship: vserver peer show

     Example

     cluster1::> vserver peer show
     
                       Peer               Peer
     Vserver           Vserver            State
     -----------       -----------        ------------
     vs1.example0.com  vs3.example0.com   peered
     1 entries were displayed.
     
     

   • View the applications running on the SVM peer relationship: vserver peer show-all

     Example

     cluster1::> vserver peer show-all
     
                       Peer              Peer                   Peering
