Releasing SnapVault relationships

You can release a SnapVault relationship between a primary qtree and its secondary qtree backup (originally defined through the snapvault start command) after the relationship is no longer needed in two ways.

Considerations

  • On a primary storage system, as a part of shutting down a SnapVault relationship after a snapvault stop command was completed on the secondary storage system.
  • On the secondary storage system, after data is restored to a primary storage system and you do not want to reactivate the backup relationship between the primary and secondary qtrees.

Steps

  1. On a primary storage system console, enter the following command:snapvault release prim_qtree_path sec_system:sec_qtree_path
  2. On the secondary storage system console, enter the following command:snapvault release sec_qtree_path prim_system:prim_qtree_path

    Example

    systemB> snapvault release /vol/sv_vol/qtree3 systemA:/vol/vol1/qtree3
