I send a replication data stream from one host to another. (and receive). I discovered that after receiving, I need to remove the auto-snapshot property on the receiving side, and set the readonly property on the receiving side, to prevent accidental changes (including auto-snapshots.)
Question #1: Actually, do I need to remove the auto-snapshot on the receiving side? Or is it sufficient to simply set the readonly property? Will the readonly property prevent auto-snapshots from occurring? So then, sometime later, I want to send an incremental replication stream. I need to name an incremental source snap on the sending side... which needs to be the latest matching snap that exists on both sides. Question #2: What's the best way to find the latest matching snap on both the source and destination? At present, it seems, I'll have to build a list of sender snaps, and a list of receiver snaps, and parse and search them, till I find the latest one that exists in both. For shell scripting, this is very non-trivial. Thanks...
