Just keep in mind, that

source:/vol/volXXX/- destination:/vol/volXXX/qtree

copies everything that is NOT in a qtree. If there's qtrees in your source you might want to mention them separately also. Alternatively you could use

source:/vol/volXXX destination:/vol/volXXX/qtree

which would replicate everything, but then whatever qtrees you might have had at the destination will be just regular directories at the destination (not good for restore...)

Tested! the qrtee does get created on destination. Thanks

One more follow up questions. If on destination  create a volume and qtree, I get this error

cannot initialize an existing qtree.   Transfer aborted: cannot initialize an existing qtree.

If I dont create a qtree on destination, how do I make sure that destination is qtree when I run   source:/vol/volXXX    destination:/vol/volXXX/qtree

Thank you all for suggestions: Tim, Richard, Jordan.

you CAN: just do snapmirror initialize -S srcfiler:/vol/srcvol/- dstfiler:/vol/dstvol/dstqtree

this will initiate a QSM of the "root"-qtree (which is the "-") of the srcvol, which is simlar to the volume (from the filesystem perspective), to the dstvol. Just try it :-) As it is a QSM it doesn't matter which version is running at src and dst.
