We are using ONTAP 9.1 in a two cluster configuration. We have an NFS Volume on the production cluster that we use as a VM datastore. Our production system is non-functional so I have been trying to get the recovery site operational. I did the following steps at the destination volume of the snapmirrior relationship:
- In the OnCommand System I broke the relationship
- The Export policy allows the ESXI server access with Read and Read/Write Access and the settings for UNIX Read and Read/Write are checked for the ex-destination volume.
- The NFS Volume is mounted
- ESXI Server added the datastore with no issues or errors
- I can see the VM data is present from within Vcenter browsing the datastore.
The problem is that the Volume from Vmware is not writeable. What am I missing and how do I troubleshoot this?
