NAS Replication Policies

Replication between volumes is managed through policies. You can create a NAS replication policy, also known as
attaching volumes, through the NAS Manager by:
1. Creating a trust between the source and destination systems.
This requires entering the IP address of the remote system and specifying an administrator's user name and
password.
2. Add the replication policy.
This requires selecting the source volume, the destination volume, and specifying a periodic schedule for the
replication.
If the destination system has data that is not available on the source system, a warning is issued, and you are
asked to approve losing this data.
3. Monitor the replication progress.
Verify if the replication is running smoothly.
You can delete the replication policy, thus making the destination system writable. For more information on NAS
replication policies, see the
NOTE: Replication destination volumes are read only when associated with a replication policy.
