Snapshot Replica not working

Post by haumichblau »

Hello,

I have extended a volume where Snapshots and Snapshot Replica is active.

As the Snapshot Replica does not work when extending the volume, I deleted the Snapshot Vault and the Snapshot Replica job and recreated them again.
But when starting the first run, it cancels with the following reason:

Source snapshot size changed(59)

What should I do to get rid of this error message.

I already restarted the NAS after deleting the job and the vault - but the problem still occurs.

Best regards,
Christian

Hello Christian,

do you have still this problem?

I had the same problem last weekend. Also I deleted the Snapshop Vault (but not the Snapshot Replica) with no success. What finally helped for me was to delete all snapshots on the source volume. This isn't a nice solution but was the only possibility I found to get rid of the problem.

Best regards

Hello Marcus,

thank you for your reply.

That was also the only solution that worked for me.
I had a history of over 100 snapshots and had to delete them all.

Best regards,
Christian

The different size snapshots in the local spool can not perform the replica jobs.
In snapshot manager, you should delete only snapshots with different size from the current size.

If you want to keep all local snapshots, you should wait for the replacing of snapshots with new size.
