Obtain details using Azure Application Consistent Snapshot tool
This article provides a guide for running the details command of the Azure Application Consistent Snapshot tool that you can use with Azure NetApp Files.
Introduction
The azacsnap -c details command lists the details of the snapshots (volume name, snapshot name, creation time, comments, snapshot size) stored on all the volumes in the configuration file. The console output can be pasted into a spreadsheet for further analysis.
Due to information stored in the back-end systems, the output of the command is slightly different when run on Azure Large Instance versus Azure NetApp Files.
Command options
The -c details command has the following options:
--details snapshotsProvides a list of basic details about the snapshots for each volume that has been configured. This command can be run on the primary server or on a server in the disaster-recovery location. The command provides the following information broken down by each volume that contains snapshots:- Size of total snapshots in a volume.
- Each snapshot in that volume includes the following details:
- Snapshot name
- Create time
- Size of the snapshot
- Frequency of the snapshot
--details replicationProvides basic details around the replication status from the production site to the disaster-recovery site. The command provides output to allow for monitoring to ensure replication is taking place. It shows the size of the items that are being replicated. It also provides guidance if replication is taking too long or if the link is down.[--configfile <config filename>]is an optional parameter allowing for custom configuration file names.
Output of the azacsnap -c details --details snapshots command
The example below has been executed on an Azure Large Instance and the output has been trimmed for brevity. Also be aware some of the lines may have been wrapped to fit the output.

Output of the azacsnap -c details --details replication command
This command checks the storage replication status from the primary site to DR location and must be executed on the DR site server. This command checks only the volumes in the configuration file.

The following example has broken replication status and, in this scenario, activating DR would likely result in incomplete data at the DR site.
Note
Note the warning in the following example about replication broken off for two of the volumes.
