One of the challenges to set up push-mirroring (where a tool somehow informs mirrors that there's new content ready to be pulled) is that we're using NetApps with snapmirroring to sync data across PHX, TPA, and RDU. While we know when rel-eng uploads data to the netapp in PHX, we don't know when all that data is quite synced to the netapps in TPA and RDU. Or do we? http://ecserv1.uwaterloo.ca/netapp/man/man1/na_snapmirror.1.html notes that there is a command, snapmirror status, which can be used on the filers to determine mirroring status/progress/complete-or-not, to each destination. I can't run this command on the filers, but with the help of SOC, we should be able to have an automated tool that runs this command on our behalf regularly and posts the results somewhere that we can read the status... If we know the status, then we can implement push-mirroring to the various mirror tiers. Tell tier 0 mirrors when the content is done snapmirroring and ready for them to pull. Then tell the tier 1 mirrors when the Tier 0 mirrors are done. etc. Mike, can you file a request with SOC requesting such a tool?
