Has anyone resynchronized their RS MSA using a third-party dump utility (NetApp) ?

Hi,

we have a RS MSA setup, replicating ten databases from PDS to RDS, using one PRS and one RRS. We resynchronize the RDB's on RDS by running dump and load, but that takes a lot of time for our larger databases. As we also have NetApp SAN on both sites, we consider to materialize by using snapshots. I just would like to know if anyone of you out there has any experience of this in a similar MSA setup ? There is a page in the document "Repserver admin guide" that explains the different steps involved, but there is no detailed example in it. I am specially interested in the "rs_marker" stuff...

All the best
