I had everything working perfectly, and now we're trying to set up a recovery plan in the opposite direction.
(both sites will be protected and recovery sites for half the VMs)
I'm back to the same problems!
I think the "Test MDisk Group ID" of 0 is wrong on the other side. When I use this - it gives a "can't find the group ID" error. If I try anything else it gives the "can't create snapshot" error (the original error I had) - but when you look closely, the SAN isn't even trying to do anything.
So does anyone know how to find the "Test MDisk Group ID" number?
In the V7000 web manager - this is just the Pool name and it has a *name*, not a number.
How do I find the identifier (eg 0) that works on one site but not the other?
PS - we're still waiting for IBM to return our call, to start the process of logging this support incident. It's only been 3 working days ;-)
