I feel like I read somewhere that you can create a DP SnapMirror without an upgrade, but that seems risky given the version differences.

I remember that SnapMirror relationships require certain version compatibilities, but I'm not sure if it needs to be upgraded to 9.1 or just 8.3.

If only SnapMirror relationships could be created with a single 'snap' of the fingers. Alas, upgrades must be done.

I'm not sure about this one. Is there a way to just create a DP type SnapMirror relationship without upgrading? That would be the easiest solution.
