system general licensing set replication XXXXXXX
Setting Up a Replication Partner
From the NAS Manager, navigate to Data ProtectionReplication
Replication Partners.
From the Action bar, click Add and enter the NAS management VIP for the
remote partner you would like to replicate to. Add the credentials of an admin
on the remote system to add the partner. On the remote system, the source
system now becomes a partner as well. This is a bi-directional replication
trust. Source volumes and target volumes can be located on either system.
