The NetApp Open Replication with SnapMirror Cloud (SM-C) replicates snapshots from a source storage virtual machine (SVM) to NetApp-supported object storage destinations. You can create only one NetApp SnapMirror Cloud Target copy (vault or replica copy) for each storage policy using primary snapshot (Snap Primary copy) as the source. The auxiliary copy manages initial data transfers and replicates snapshots to an object storage destination.
