Your customer complains about missing volume snapshot copies on a SnapMlrror destination. While investigating this case, you notice an executed SnapMirror resync operation in the event logs of the system.

In this scenario, what Is the cause of this problem?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

= When a SnapMirror resync operation is performed, the destination volume is reverted to the most recent common snapshot copy with the source volume. Any newer snapshot copies that exist on the destination volume are deleted automatically, unless they are marked as busy or locked. This is done to ensure that the destination volume is consistent with the source volume and to avoid data loss or corruption. Therefore, if the customer complains about missing snapshot copies on the destination volume after a SnapMirror resync, the most likely cause is that those snapshot copies were newer than the common snapshot that was chosen for resync and were removed automatically by the system.Reference=SnapMirror resync operation,SnapMirror resync or update failed No Snapshot copies found on volume,Even though there is common snapshot, SnapMirror resync fails with error: No common snapshot copy found between source and destination volume

I think it's B. Autodelete could have cleared them out.

Sounds like a classic case of misconfiguration, maybe D is right.

Wait, how does ONTAP even decide which ones to keep?

I disagree, it could be C, someone might have deleted them manually.

I think it's B, the autodelete option is tricky.

I think option A makes sense because if newer snapshots were deleted, it would explain the missing copies. But I'm not completely confident in that.

I feel like the resync operation could lead to snapshots being removed, but I can't recall if it was specifically due to the autodelete feature or something else.

This seems similar to a practice question we did on SnapMirror operations. I think the answer might be B, but I need to double-check the details.

I remember something about how the autodelete option can affect snapshots, but I'm not entirely sure if it applies here.
