Run “vol options volname fs_size_fixed off” on the destination volume and you will then be able to shrink it.
I'm teaching our storage team to use the System Manager to resize volumes (both source and destination snap mirror volumes)
Then one team member noticed this old issue - when the SM src/dest pair volumes are shrunk - the new size is not reflected on the destination - even after a SM update.
Last year I wrote about this http://www.vmadmin.info/2011/04/shrinking-snapmirror-destination.html
and the solution at the time was to break the SM to have the destination space reclaimed.
But is there a better method?
This script shows I have volumes with space reclaimable:
ssh na01 -l root vol status -b | awk '{print $0" diff = "($3-$4)*4096/1024/1024" gb"}'
