Yes it works and is supported by both companies. You can interop with no issues for SnapMirror though Ontap level restrictions apply (use similar Ontap levels).
Additionally Operations Manager and OSSV clients can also work with each others systems though OSSV should match the same brand though it's not enforced. It is supported.
Cheers Andy

I belive it's supported by both, at least that was what IBM told me to get me to buy the 5600 from them. I'm copying someone who should know :-)

Hiya
I've done this a while ago (ONTAP 7.2 sort of time frame). It does indeed work from a technical point of view, though I'm not sure whether it's actually a supported solution by either vendor.
Cheers
Chris

Hi list!
Just a quick question: Has anyone ever tried to make SnapMirror work between IBM N-series and NetApp FAS?
And most importantly: Did it work? ;)
Greetings,
Nils
