what is meant by Synchronization rate in SRDF

Hi friends,

what is meant by Synchronization rate in the following output.Is it related to bandwidth of our SRDF link.

Synchronization rate is a measure of the amount of time it would take for your data to reach from your primary Symm to your secondary Symm, it depends on the following factors:

1. Bandwidth of the SRDF Links

2. Mode of SRDF operation used

Hi Sreehari,

In my output synchronization rate it is showing 0 MB/S.How can it be 0 with very little amount of data pending to write.

And we have dedicated link of 100mbps for replication purpose.

That is the actual send rate when the command is run; if you have almost no data to send then it will be very low, possibly to low to register.

If you run the command a few times or use the interval/count option to automatically run the command over time you will get better numbers in that field.

For instance

symdg -g name query -i 10 -c 5

query the symdg every 10 seconds for a count of 5 times
