I do not share snapshots!
I have one for the 01:30, and one for the 13:30 as well as one for the replication task and now I plan another one or more for the tape backup.

So, here my question again:
Regarding to this (open-e doc):
'It is not possible to perform data replication and backup at the same time. Backup has higher priority then data replication. When scheduled concurrently with backup and using snapshots from the same logical volume, data replication will be stopped. You will see a snapshot error in the Data replication status field, because snapshots cannot be used twice at the same time if they are set to the same logical volume. '

So, the worst case is that I lost one replication task, in my case one hour and two ours later the replication starts again with eg. more date to replicate? In my case a kind of cosmetic error, especially If schedule the tape backup at night?

Best,
T.

So you should take care in your scheduling.

Basically you want to run one task at a time against the same snapshot. If backup is scheduled on the snapshot, it will take priority over vrep task on same snapshot.
