all sources as is displayed on the Home page.
Adding a Replication Source
Add a system to the list of replication sources to allow it to send replicated data to the DXi4700. You must
add a source system to the list of allowed replication sources on the target DXi before you configure the
source DXi to send replicated data to the target. The DXi can receive replicated data fromup to 10 sources.
Additional Information

Receive VTL on page
It is typical for the target DXi to require additional disk space for replication data compared to the
l
source DXi. This is because complete replication data is sent to the target before old data is deleted.
For optimal performance, if the DXi is a replication target, Quantum recommends keeping the amount
of free space at 20% or more (see
To add a replication source:
1. Under Source DXis, click Add.
The Add Allowed Source window displays (see
Figure 163: Add Allowed Source
2. In the Source Hostname or IP box, enter the hostname or IP address of the system that will send the
replicated data to the DXi4700.
Note: To use hostname format, you must specify at least one DNS IP address on the Network
page (see Network on page
