Integrity verification on SnapMirror destination volumes

SnapManager 5.0 and later enables you to verify the Exchange databases that are stored on the LUNs of the destination SnapMirror volumes.

When you verify the integrity of a destination volume, SnapManager automatically detects the SnapMirror relationships with the appropriate source volume in the volumes and selects the available SnapMirror relationship for the selected destination volume.

If you have changed the volume SnapMirror relationship by mirroring data to a new destination filer, you can set the new path as the volume SnapMirror destination for verification purposes. To change the volume SnapMirror destination, perform the following steps:

Click the SnapManager for Exchange Backup verification settings.
Click the Verification Server tab.
Click the Verification on destination volumes button.

Selecting the SnapMirror destination volumes for verification
You must select a destination volume when you establish a SnapMirror relationship. SnapManager automatically detects and selects the available SnapMirror relationships between the SnapMirror source and SnapMirror destination volumes.
Requirements to run destination volume integrity verification
Ensure that your system meets the system requirements for the SnapMirror and FlexClone licenses and CIFS shares configuration before you start integrity verification.
Troubleshooting integrity verification failure on SnapMirror destination volumes
If you have changed the volume SnapMirror relationship by mirroring data to a new destination filer, SnapManager will not be able to find the destination filer and will provide an error. You can set the new path as the volume SnapMirror destination for verification purposes.
