We have two clusters that are both running 9.7P5. On Cluster A, we have a volume that has a CIFS share associated with it. We then have a Snapmirror Sync relationship with Cluster B. For some reason, when a user updates a file in the original volume, the changes aren't replicated to Cluster B until 5 minutes after the hour (or a manual update). Our understanding is that a write to the source volume would be written immediately to the source and destination?
Below is the information for the relationship in case it helps:
