i have replication enabled and working. replication time is set to 02:00 - 03:00.
Now, if i wanna test something and i edit the timewindow to say 02:00 - 20:00
and current time is in this window, the replication tasks aren't executed automatically until 02:00 next night.
Why? Can i trigger it somehow? Reboot of the freenas doesn't seem to help either.
Is it triggered by the time of snapshot creation?
Edit:
So i finally figured out that the timewindow for replication has some sort of connection with the timewindow for the snapshot creation.
If i allow replication to occoure 00:00 - 23:59 as default, nothing happens.
But, if i change the snapshot creation timewindow too, so that current time is between both replication and snapshot timewindow, SSHD restarts, and replication occurs immediately, even if the snapshot was created hours ago :)
And so forth the replication occurs, as long as both timewindows is valid, immediately at snapshot creation time it seems.
Has anyone some explanation for me here? I know how to make it work, but i want to know why. :)
