2.
Decide whether you want to use physical tape media to reverse seed the first full restore. It is
possible to recover across the WAN, but this may place an unacceptable load on bandwidth or
time availability.
IMPORTANT:
If using reverse seeding, use Tape Attach on the Target Appliance to copy the last full backup
cartridge to tape and transport the media to the Replication Source site. Import the physical
media into the a slot within a Non-Replicating Library on the Source Appliances (using the Tape
Attach pages) before running the Recovery wizard.
3.
Go to the Replication - Mapping Configuration page and select the new non-replicating library.
4.
Click Start Recovery Wizard.
5.
Add the Target Appliance that was used as the previous replication target using its IP address
or fully qualified domain name.
6.
Select the existing Target Library from which slots should be recovered.
7.
Adopt the Slot Mapping that had been configured. All slots in the Target Library will be selected
by default, but you may deselect any cartridges that you do not wish to recover to the Source
Library.
8.
Click Apply to run reverse replication.
9.
As soon as reverse replication has completed for each slot, the data may be recovered to the
host using the original backup application.
10.
New backups can now run to the Source Appliance and replication will run normally without
further configuration.

Reverse replication, source lost and mapping deleted

This is the non-standard recovery model, in which a disaster has occurred in the remote site resulting
in the loss of both the host servers and the D2D system. New hardware has been purchased and
installed and the admin now wants to recover data to the D2D and then restore to the host server.
Before the failure a mapping existed between a Source Library on the remote site D2D and a Target
Library on the Data Center D2D. After the failure the mapping was also removed on the Target
Appliance. The Target Library on the Data Center D2D is now in a non-replicating state.
IMPORTANT:
In this procedure you will use the Replication wizard on the Source Appliance and not the Recovery
wizard.
