SRDF/Timefinder error....
hi ,
i got a problem with one of server SRDF ...the srdf log file is filled with a msg saying
CRITICAL ---- server-dg replication error! Remote TimeFinder Sync has exceeded time limit of 60 minutes
i check >>>>symmir -g XXXX-dg query
And local standard & bcvs are at split state
and >>>>symrdf -g XXXX-dg -bcv query
devices are at suspend state
the state saying INVALID ...
R E M O T E S Y M M E T R I X
Standard Device BCV Device State
-------------------------- ------------------------------------- ------------
Inv. Inv.
Logical Sym Tracks Logical Sym Tracks STD <=> BCV
-------------------------- ------------------------------------- ------------
BCV1 0034 0 BRBCV1 xxx* 0 Invalid
BCV2 0082 0 BRBCV2 xxxx * 0 Invalid
so if i run remote Timefiner with below command , will solve my problem
symmir -g XXX-dg -bcv -rdf -full establish
or is they associated with any other issues...
thank you,

But the invalid state is a little suspicious.
Also check your time finder options /var/symapi/config/options file to see if there is enabled value of 60 minutes

I am facing the same issue.
Standard Device BCV Device State
-------------------------- ------------------------------------- ------------
Inv. Inv.
Logical Sym Tracks Logical Sym Tracks STD <=> BCV
-------------------------- ------------------------------------- ------------
DEV001 0XXX 0 BCV001 0YYY * 0 Invalid
Total ------- -------
Track(s) 0 0
MB(s) 0.0 0.0
and when I try to run :
symmir -g SSQLXXXXX -bcv -rdf -full establish
I get this error.
Device group 'SSQLXXXXX' does not have any remotely-associated BCV devices
that can be paired with the remote mirrors of the BCV RDF devices.
Please help me out

Thx

SAR = Srdf/AR = SRDF Automated Replication = A mix of SRDF and Timefinder managed with a single command that takes care of handling both SRDF and TF to move your data from a box to another box. A sort of DR solution for cheapskate

Where are the BCVs ? The BCVs are on the same box whereas the SRDF is on the other box.
Where are you issuing the commands from ?? I am issuing from a host connected to the primary box

Try removing both options (-rdf and -bcv) and issue the command again.

Later, forcefully established them and then split them
and hurray they were no longer invalid !
