Replication Destination Volume is Busy Reclaiming Space

Description

Replication between the NAS source volume and the NAS

 

destination volume fails because the destination NAS volume is

 

busy freeing up space.

Cause

Replication task fails because the destination NAS volume is busy

 

freeing up space.

Workaround

The replication continues automatically when the space is

 

available. The administrators should verify that the replication

 

automatically continues after a period of time (an hour).

 

 

Replication Destination Volume is Detached

Description

Replication between the NAS source volume and the NAS

 

destination volume fails because the NAS destination volume is

 

detached from the NAS source volume.

Cause

Replication task fails because the destination NAS volume was

 

previously detached from the source NAS volume.

Workaround

The administrators should perform the detach action on the NAS

 

source volume. If required, reattach both NAS volumes in a

 

replication relation.

 

 

Replication Disconnection

Description

Replication between the NAS source volume and the NAS

 

destination volume fails because the connection between source

 

and destination systems is lost.

Cause

Network infrastructure disconnection between the source and

 

the destination.

Workaround

The administrator should check if the replication is automatically

 

restored. If the replication is not automatically restored, check the

 

network communication between the source cluster and the

 

destination cluster. Network communication can be checked by

 

using a third party system in the same subnet that can ping both

 

the source and destination clusters.
