Database Replication error

Question

Hi all,

I've got the following error when I try to replicate a SQL 2005 database :
2009 09 08 03:03:41 PRODSERVER 030234 ERROR:Replication Manager was unable to mark the Celerra iSCSI session fs1549_T2_LUN32_CK200070300856_0000_fs2771_T3_LUN133_CK200070300846_0000, error is NBS Err:NBSSVR_DPRQST_TooManySnapsForReplication.

OS on both SQL servers : Win2003 server R2 SP2
RM Server Version : 5.1.2.0
RM Client Version : 5.1.2.0

Is there a limit of snap number for replication ?
I've tried so many tips :

- Increase space on OS drive
- Increase space on Database LUN
- Delete some database on the replication

Anybody have already encounter this error ? Need some help

Thanks in advance.
Regards,

There are some issues around celerra iscsi snaps and RM. It might be a situation where orphan snaps exist due to a timing issue when deleting and creating new snapshots. There are some workarounds and fixes around this are. I suggest you open a ticket with support and provide RM debug logs. Orphan snaps will need to be checked and removed by support. Take a look at emc149820 also or quote that when opening a ticket.
