snapvault

Struggled with snapvault this week. First, we were missing some datastores in one of the snapvault jobs, then the snapvault copies on another datastore disappeared.

When snapvault works, it is great. But when it does not, it is a pain. If a datastore should be getting snapvaulted, but is not, the only way to know this is to be aware which datastores are suppossed to get snapvaulted and verify the snapshots on either the promary or secondary. It is very easy to create a new datastore, and then forget to add it to the snapvault job.

I have a script that checks for snapshots, but I need to remember to add new datastores to the script. Time to review my scripts!
