SRM 5.8 can't see replicated datastores while trying to create protection group

Hi there,

I am in the process of setting up SRM 5.8. I am making use of Netapp FAS 8040 filers (C-Mode) and am making use of the latest SRA.

The array manager in SRM  indicates that replication is going in and out and we have confirmed this in ontap as well. When I come to

setting up the protection group I get a failure saying that no replicated datastores are found. Not sure what is going on here.
I cannot find anything in the dr log either. Any ideas?

Cheers

May I know which SRA you are using? in EMC recovery point and SRA I know that under consistency group, you need to edit the group policy and change the external management to SRM.

Hi

Just a few things to check:

Are you sure you haven't added these datastores to another group? Are you selecting the right protected/recovery site in the beginning of the Create Protection Group wizard?

Thanks
