Hi,

Is VMWare Live Recovery supported from a NetApp SnapMirror/Vault destination that has SnapLock enabled.

That is, is it possible to point the Live Recovery source copy to a SnapMirror/Vault copy?

I am assuming that it “should” be possible as the data is presented via the MA back to the ESX host, and am looking for confirmation of this.

Cheers

Jon

Live recovery takes a clone of the snapshot to ensure the original is not modified. As such snaplock should not impact the ability to run a live recovery.
