View or change replication configuration

1. Click on Protected Systems on the left hand navigation. You will see a list of the systems currently being backed up and protected by the appliance.

2. Click the required System Name to see details.



3. In the Protected Systems Details page, click the Replication button.



The Replication Settings page displays, allowing you to manage settings.

Add vault replication targets

In the Replication Settings popup, you can manage and add vault replication targets.  



  1. To add a new Vault Replication Target, click the Add Vault button.
  2. Use the Enabled checkbox to enable or disable replication to this vault. 
  3. Click the Vault Setting dropdown menu to select an available vault.  To configure a vault, please reference the Adding Vaults and Managing Vault Settings article. 
  4. Use the Initial Snapshot dropdown menu to select the snapshot that should be used as the base image when replicating to the vault.
  5. Optionally, if you would like to use USB seeding to deliver the protected system base Image to the data center on a USB hard drive for this vault, click the USB Seeding checkbox.
  6. Click Save to save your replication settings.


Delete vault replication target(s)

 In the Replication Settings page, you can delete vault replication targets. 

1. Click the Delete button for the vault replication target that you wish to remove.
Important: Deleting a vault replication target also deletes the protected system from the target vault.

2. Click Save to save changes and begin the deletion process; or click Cancel to abort.

NOTE

The Replications Settings popup will show Deleting for deleted vault targets until the appliance has confirmed that the protected system has been fully deleted from the vault. This normally takes only a few minutes.

  2. Click the Replication button in the Protected Systems Details page.

If you select the same Base snapshot for all vaults, a single seed export can be used for all.

Import a seed disk on the vault

  1. When the seeding job has successfully completed, transport the USB disk to the datacenter and connect it to the vault.
  2. From the Menu pane, select Protected Systems.
  3. Click the Seed button in the actions pane of the target protected system to begin importing the seed data from the USB disk.



  4. Monitor the seed import process from the Replication tab on the Jobs Menu pane on the vault.
