Working With Replication Groups In Fsi; Creating A Replication Group For Fsi - IBM TS7650G User Manual

If the replication IP address of a grid member is changed, you need to update the
ProtecTIER Replication manager with the new IP address.
To update the replication manager about a change in the IP address of a repository,
select Repository > Update repository address. The Update repository address
screen is displayed. Enter the updated IP address and click Ok.

Working with replication groups in FSI

This section describes how to work with replication groups in a "many-to-many"
FSI environments.
FSI supports an 8-way "many-to-many" replication topology group. Each repository
assumes the responsibility of a destination and/or source repository and is capable
of receiving local FSI backups, replicating data to remote repositories, and
receiving replicated data from remote repositories. The same data may be
replicated from its principal source to up to 3 destination repositories, and different
data may be replicated between multiple repositories in a bi-directional manner.

Creating a Replication Group for FSI

This task explains how to create a replication group in a replication grid for FSI.
About this task
Follow this procedure to connect up to 8 repositories in a many-to-many
replication group.
Before defining any replication policy, you must create a replication group with a
physical connection between the repositories.
Procedure
1. From the Grids Management view, click on a single node repository.
2. Select Group > Replication group management. The Replication group
3. Click Next. The Repositories selection window is displayed.
4. Select the destination repositories from the list to be part of the replication
5. Click Next. The Preview window of the Replication Group is displayed.
6. Type a Group name in the Replication group settings window and click
What to do next
Repeat this procedure to create additional replication groups, or go on to "Creating
replication policies for FSI" on page 106.
