Replication V2 version out of space

Hello all,
I'm experiencing some errors creating a replication session from a NS20 regarding iSCSI LUN to a destination with readonly iSCSI LUN same size.
Starting from my wizard I'm able to determine my readonly LUN on my destination but when finishing the process a warning message pop up - "version set out of space".
The proper recommendation is to extend my file system or my iSCSI LUN.
This is cause my file system which these LUNS are created is totally full.
These file system were not created with virtual provisioning and this would help solve this problem or even it does not happen.
I have about 146GB in a RAID GROUP+146GB in another one and a last one with 73GB. I really could deliver those to Celerra but I think this could help like a workaround and not a definitive solution.
Also troubleshooting saw my SavVol is full like said previously and would like to measure a specific growth rate, beign that my storage is almost full capacity.
Follow my specific environment outputs and if anyone has an idea please let me know.

Hi Vitor,

for ISCSI snaps and replication the SAVVOL is not used - the snapshots are kept inside the same file system as the LUN

so you have two choices:

- extend the file system to allow for space for the snapshots
how much you can determine by looking at "Space required for next snapshot" in the LUN properties in the GUI or by calculating from the sizing Technote on Powerlink
both the source and the destination file system need enough space for snapshots in order for the replication to work

- delete the destination LUN and re-create it as virtually provisioned - then it *and* its snapshots wont require full space reservation.
in order to create a replication session to a VP LUN you currently need to use the CLI though - the GUI wont allow you to select it

creating the file system itself virtually provisioned or with auto-extension is (I believe) only supported if it contains VP LUNs but not for dense LUNs

Hello Rainer,
Thanks for response.
But I have a problem cause my file systems are complete full and already in use against my LUNS.
I tryed to enable auto-extend them but pop up an error cause they are already in use.
Error 2216: fs-07 : item is currently in use by iscsi
Also tryed to extend the volume that compose it.
Error 2216: v126 : item is currently in use by fs-07
Is there some other way to enable auto-extend or to xtend those file systems since they're in full production?

Thanks a lot friend!

Regards...

Hi,

you just need to extend the file system manually (not the volume)

Either through the GUI on the File Systems page

or from the CLI nas_fs -xtend size= pool=
like nas_fs -xtend fs07 size=10G

Ok that's great Rainer but the problem is the total amount of space that we don't have.
The procedure goes in a way almost creating a "clone" to the 1st snapshot and this snapshot in truth is replicated and later on just updating the common base for instance the 2nd snapshot in both sides.
I really appreciate your comments and really got the schema.

See ya!

well - if you cant spend the space for full reservation then use virtually provisioned LUNs

they wont reserve any space up-front for either LUNs or snapshots

Just make sure that you combine it with good monitoring and/or automatic file system extension so that you catch it before the file system fills up
