[OpenIndiana-discuss] auto-snapshot replicate problems

[John McEntee]

I have a problem trying to keep a second fileserver in sync with the primary
one.

 

I have a script (auto-replicate) that I have slightly altered that basically
checks the latest snapshot of the both  master server and the dr server. It
then does a send -I if there is a difference. This used to work fine in the
old versions of the time-slider service.

 

The problem I have is the later version of the time-slider service in
OpenIndiana cleans up old snapshots of zero size, which means the latest
snapshot on the dr server no longer exists on the master server so the send
-I fails.

 

My fix would be to hack the time-slider service to not clean up the zero
size snapshots. Please can anyone point me in the right direction? I cannot
even find the code at the moment. I would also be interested in any other
solutions

 

Thanks

 

John
