💖 NetApp...mirror(3pm) — bestie's guide to NetApp::Snapmirror 💖

okay so this is a page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, section 3pm, and it's about a little Perl class called NetApp::Snapmirror. grab a snack, we're doing this. 🍓

✨ NAME ✨

NetApp::Snapmirror — it's an OO class for snapmirror relationships, fr fr. one object, one relationship, and a whole bunch of methods to poke at it. 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the vibe, literally copy-paste energy:

use NetApp::Filer;
use NetApp::Snapmirror;

my $filer   = NetApp::Filer->new( .... );

my @snapmirrors     = $filer->get_snapmirrors;

my $volume  = $filer->get_volume( .... );

my @snapmirrors     = $volume->get_snapmirrors;

like. you get a NetApp::Filer, and then you can pull snapmirrors straight off the filer, or off a volume you grabbed with get_volume. two doors, same slay. 🚪✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so this class encapsulates a single snapmirror relationship — just one, she's monogamous — and it gives you methods for querying information about it, plus methods for managing it. so it's giving both girl who knows things and girl who does things. 👑

💅 METHODS 💅

⭐ get_filer

returns the NetApp::Filer object for the filer that this snapmirror relationship is defined on. so you can always find your way home. 🏠

⭐ get_source

returns a NetApp::Snapmirror::Source object representing the source filer/volume for this snapmirror relationship. that's where the data is coming from, bestie. 💫

⭐ get_destination

returns a NetApp::Snapmirror::Destination object representing the source filer/volume for this snapmirror relationship. yes, the description really does say "source" there too — no cap, I'm not touching it, that's what it says. 🙈

🌈 Miscellaneous get_* methods

all of these get methods return strings which match the values found for each of the obvious keywords in the output of snapmirror status -l. like, every one of them. a whole buffet of getters. 🍽️

  • get_status
  • get_progress
  • get_state
  • get_lag
  • get_mirror_timestamp
  • get_base_snapshot
  • get_current_transfer_type
  • get_current_transfer_error
  • get_contents
  • get_last_transfer_type
  • get_last_transfer_size
  • get_last_transfer_duration
  • get_last_transfer_from
NOTE: in a future release, when snapshots are supported as a proper object, the return value of get_snapshot will almost certainly return such an object. so like… heads up, that one's gonna glow up later. 💀✨
