Hi Ignazio,
The way you set it up is correct with "enabled_share_backends = svm-tst-nfs-565,netapp-nfs-566". You need both backends enabled for the feature to work.
Regards,
Rodrigo

Hello All, I am able to replicate shares between netapp storages but I have some questions. Reading netapp documentation, seems the replication svm must not be enabled in manila.conf. The following is what netapp suggests:
enabled_share_backends = svm-tst-nfs-565
[svm-tst-nfs-565] share_backend_name = svm-tst-nfs-565 driver_handles_share_servers = false share_driver = manila.share.drivers.netapp.common.NetAppDriver netapp_storage_family = ontap_cluster netapp_server_hostname = fas8040.csi.it netapp_server_port = 80 netapp_login = admin netapp_password = ****** netapp_transport_type = http netapp_vserver = svm-tst-nfs-565 netapp_aggregate_name_search_pattern = ^((?!aggr0).)*$ replication_domain = replication_domain_1
[netapp-nfs-566] share_backend_name = netapp-nfs-566 driver_handles_share_servers = False share_driver = manila.share.drivers.netapp.common.NetAppDriver netapp_storage_family = ontap_cluster netapp_server_hostname = fas.csi.it netapp_server_port = 80 netapp_login = admin netapp_password = ***** netapp_transport_type = http netapp_vserver = manila-nfs-566 netapp_aggregate_name_search_pattern = ^((?!aggr0).)*$ replication_domain = replication_domain_1
As you can see above, the target of replica netapp-nfs-566 is not included in enabled backends.
When I try to create a replica in this situation, the manila schedule reports "no valid host found".
It works if I enable in manila.conf the target like this: enabled_share_backends = svm-tst-nfs-565,netapp-nfs-566
Please, any suggestion ?
Thanks Ignazio

Thanks, Douglas. On another question: the manila share-replica-delete delete the snapmirror ? If yes, source and destination volume become both writable ?

Yes, it is correct. This should work as an alternative for host-assisted-migration and will be faster since it uses storage technologies to synchronize data. If your share isn't associated with a share-type that has replication_type='dr' you can: 1) create a new share-type with replication_type extra-spec, 2) unmanage your share, 3) manage it again using the new share-type.

Hello, I am sorry.
I read the documentation.
SMV must be peered once bye storage admimistrator or using ansible playbook. I must create a two backend in manila.conf with the same replication domain. I must assign to the source a type and set replication type dr. When I create a share if I want to enable snapmirror for it I must create on openstack a share replica for it. The share on destination is read only until I promote it. When I promote it, it become writable. Then I can manage it on target openstack.
I hope the above is the correct procedure

Hi Douglas, you are really kind. Let my to to recap and please correct if I am wrong:
- manila share on netapp are under svm - storage administrator createx a peering between svm source and svm destination (or on single share volume ?) - I create a manila share with specs replication type (the share belongs to source svm) . In manila.conf source and destination must have the same replication domain - Creating the replication type it initializes the snapmirror
Is it correct ? Ignazio
