Replicated dataset is not set to read-only

[Basil Hendroff]

Extract from the Replication section of the User Guide...

This is simply not true. Storage view of replicated data sets on a server that is a replication target...

This issue has been raised several times in recent history...

• Destination replication pool/datasets are not read only - 2020-02-19
• Freenas Replication - Daily Security Email - Filesystem Changes "Read Only" an Error on my part? - 2020-02-14
• data replication - 2020-02-04

Jira suggests that this issue (NAS-104946 resolved 2020-03-12) has been fixed in 11.3-U2. A regression? Is anyone able to confirm please before I submit a bug report?

Maybe the pool as the readonly status enabled but not the datasets.

I don't think so. How would that have been set?

The documentation is quite clear 'the target dataset is created read-only'.

If you want the destination to be read-only you should configure that in your replication task
At least that is what works here ...

I appreciate that it can be changed, but if the documentation is to be believed (see post #1 above), then I should be opting out of read-only, not opting in. So, is the documentation wrong, or is there a problem with the replication wizard in that its default configuration is a read-only policy of IGNORE instead of SET for destination datasets?

 

[Patrick M. Hausen]

I get your point, but that question is not mine to answer. I never checked the documentation for that part.
