Replication Management

This page allows you to manage all Synchronous Replication Pairs involving Volumes in
this box. To access this page, click on the Replication node in the navigation tree.
Field Description
Local/Remote Pool This field displays the pair's Local and Remote Storage Pools respectively.
Local/Remote Volume This field displays the pair's Local and Remote SAN Volumes respectively.
Volume Size This field displays the SAN Volumes' size (must be the same for both volumes in a pair).
Replication Role This field displays the Replication Role. The Storage Appliance volume can either be the
Primary or the Remote volume of a given pair.
Replication Mode This field displays the Replication Mode. Synchronous Replication Mode and HA Mode
are supported.
Connection Mode Auto means that the replication pair is synchronized automatically. Manual means that the
replication pair can be synchronized manually.
Resync. Priority This field allows you to customize your resync priority. 25% is the default setting.
Resync is used to synchronize the volumes. Setting the resync priority closer to 100%
makes the volumes more current, however it takes more system resources (such as CPU
and memory resources) when this setting is higher.
Remote Host This field displays the IP Address of the Remote Host. In the event that the IP Address
changes on the Remote Host (such as the case when using DHCP), you can update the new
IP Address by typing it into this field. In the case of a local replication pair (involving two
volumes in the same local box, this column will show "local".
