7.
Select Import/Export Pools from the navigation pane, then select the newly created import pool
to see the Tape Import Pool Details screen.
The screen prompts you to load full tapes and unload finished tapes as needed. If a physical
tape is damaged or otherwise unavailable, you can select Skip for that tape and transmit the
data over the LAN/WAN after the import process completes.
8.
After the import process completes:
• The tape import pool is automatically destroyed on the target site
• The tape export pool is automatically destroyed on the source site
• The echo copy pool on the source will change to the "Ready" state and deduplication-enabled
replication over the LAN/WAN will begin at the next screen

Forcing Non-Deduplicated Replication

For systems using replication with deduplication, the Non Deduplicated Copy task allows you to
schedule a replication job that forces the whole cartridge (non-deduplicated data) to replicate
immediately regardless of whether or not the cartridge is within the policy window. You can only
perform this task when the cartridge is holding in the Backup Postprocessing state.
In Command View VLS:
1.
On the Automigration/Replication tab, expand the destination library in the navigation pane
and select Slots to open the Summary for Slots screen.
2.
Select Non Deduplicated Copy from the task bar.
3.
On the Non Deduplicated Copy screen, select the slots you want to replicate.
4.
Select Submit.
The system immediately registers the selected cartridges into the queue to replicate the whole
cartridge when resources are available regardless of the policy windows.
NOTE:
The whole cartridge copy of the data will not deduplicate. This data will consume additional space
on the target VLS until the cartridge is overwritten with new data by the backup application.

LAN/WAN Replication Target Operations

The following sections describe the operations for LAN/WAN replication target.

Creating a LAN/WAN Replication Target

The first step in configuring replication is the creation of the LAN/WAN replication target. Do this
via Command View VLS on the destination VLS. Any virtual library (or slot range within a virtual
library) can be configured to act as a LAN/WAN replication target.
1.
In Command View VLS, select the Automigration/Replication tab.
2.
Expand LAN/WAN Replication Targets in the navigation pane.
