2.
On the Target Appliance (now in the remote site), go to the Replication - Mapping Configuration
page, select the Target Library and remove the slot mapping between it and the lost Source Library.
3.
As long as there is only one slot mapping to the Target Library, it will become a Non-Replicating
Library.
NOTE:
If there are other mappings, do not remove them if it will break other library replication. Do not
proceed, this method is not suitable.
4.
Decide which interface, iSCSI or FC, you will use to connect the library to the host and edit the port
configuration of the newly promoted Non-Replicating Library to make it iSCSI or FC, as appropriate.
• For an iSCSI connection, install the iSCSI initiator on the host machine at the remote site where
recovery is to occur and install the backup application. Configure the iSCSI Initiator Name for
the newly promoted Non-Replicating Library to be that of the host system.
• For a FC connection, connect to the SAN. (If necessary, install a FC card in the server.)
5.
Connect to the colocated appliance and library from the host.
6.
Import the cartridges into the backup application and recover the data over the WAN.
7.
At this point there is no HP D2D Source Appliance at the remote site. If one is installed at
a later date, you can reverse recover the data and configure replication, as described in
"Reverse replication, source lost and mapping

Recovery from physical media direct to host

In this recovery model, a disaster has occurred at the remote site resulting in the loss of both the host
servers and the D2D system. New server hardware has been purchased and installed and the admin
now wants to recover data to the server. The admin is now going to recover the server data using tape
before purchasing and re-installing a new D2D device in the remote office.
The following procedure is the simplest method but only applies if a tape library or tape drive is physically
attached to the Data Center D2D appliance.
