Which three /etc/snapmirror.conf entries will support synchronous or semi-synchronous
SnapMirror?

A.
FilerA:source_vol FilerB:destination_vol visibility_interval = lhr, outstanding = 3ms,
cksum=crc32 syns

B.
FilerA:source_vol FilerB:destination_vol – 0-55/5 * * *

C.
FilerA:source_vol FilerB:destination_vol – sync

D.
FilerA:source_vol FilerB:destination_vol outstanding=3s sync

Each relationship entry of the /etc/snapmirror.conf file is a single line containing space-separated
fields.
The entry has this format:
Source destination arguments scheduleschedule
This is the schedule used by the destination node for updating the mirror. It informs the SnapMirror
schedulerwhen transfers will be initiated. The schedule field can contain the word sync to specify
fully synchronousmirroring, semi-sync to specify semi-synchronous mirroring, or a cron-style
specification of when to update themirror.
visibility_interval
The value for this argument is a number optionally followed by the suffixes: s (seconds), m
(minutes) or h(hours). If a suffix is not specified, value is interpreted as seconds. This argument
controls the amount of timebefore an automatic snapshot is created on the source volume that is
synchronously mirrored. The value is thenumber of seconds between automatically created
snapshots. The default value is 3 minutes. A small numberhere can negatively affect the
performance of the mirror. This argument is ignored for asynchronous mirrors.
Outstanding (deprecated)
This argument controls the performance versus synchronicity trade-off for synchronous mirrors.
The value forthis argument is a number followed by the suffixes: ops (operations), ms
(milliseconds) or s (seconds). Settinga value less than 10s configures the mirror to run in fully
synchronous mode. Setting a value greater than orequal to 10s configures the mirror to run in
semi-synchronous mode. This argument is ignored forasynchronous mirrors. Please note that this
is a deprecated option. Use the schedule field to specify thesynchronous mode for the mirror.
cksum
This controls which checksum algorithm is used to protect the data transmitted by SnapMirror.
Currentlysupported values are “none”, “crc32c”, and “crc32c_header_only”. The value

“crc32c_header_only” has beenadded only for volume SnapMirror and is not supported for
synchronous SnapMirror and qtree SnapMirror.
