This work as long as you don't have an overflow where one transfer spills into the time
slice of another.  If this happens, you'll still have multiple transfers running at once.

See the syntax of the snapmirror.conf file.  You can setup just like cron so that 1 runs on the 10s of each hour, 2 to run on the 15s, and the third to run at other times or other hours. I don’t know of any way to setup to run one after the other and keep repeating. The initial will take a while to run, but incrementals should be short.

Subject: Snapmirror serial execution?

 

Is there a way to make NetApp snapmirror updates run in serial? In other words, if I setup 3 snapmirror relationships, how can I get the first one to run, and then run the second one as soon as the first finishes, and then the third in the same fashion?

I want to try and avoid using cronjobs from an external server.
