Remote Copy
Establish a remote copy partnership with the local cluster at the remote cluster.
Step 8
remote-switch(svc-cluster)# remote-copy cluster local-cluster
remote-switch(svc-cluster)#
Create a remote copy consistency group in the local cluster.
Step 9
local-switch(svc-cluster)# remote-copy add rcgrp cluster remote
local-switch(svc-cluster)#
Enter the remote copy consistency group submode in the local cluster.
Step 10
local-switch(svc-cluster)# remote-copy name rcgrp
local-switch(svc-cluster-remote-copy)#
Step 11
Create remote copy relationships between the source VDisks, and auxiliary VDisks, under the remote
copy consistency group.
local-switch(svc-cluster-remote-copy)# map src-vdisk fndata-src aux-vdisk fndata-aux
local-switch(svc-cluster-remote-copy)# map src-vdisk fnlog-src aux-vdisk fnlog-aux
local-switch(svc-cluster-remote-copy)#
Return to the svc-config submode in the local switch.
Step 12
local-switch(svc-cluster-remote-copy)# exit
local-switch(svc-cluster)# exit
local-switch(svc)#
Verify the remote copy consistency group configuration.
Step 13
local-switch(svc)# show cluster local-cluster remote-copy rcgrp

Starting Remote Copy
Once the remote copy configuration is completed for a consistency group, start (activate) the remote
copy relationships by issuing the start command. This command triggers the background copy from the
corresponding source VDisks to the auxiliary VDisks respectively. Any subsequent writes issued to a
particular source VDisk are also mirrored in the corresponding auxiliary VDisk, in the remote copy
relationship.
To start remote copy relationships, follow these steps:
