differences in the Containers: Statistics and Statistics: Replication pages due to the difference of the system
software version used on the source appliance.

Creating a Replication Schedule

Replication schedules can only be set on individual replication-enabled source containers. To create a Replication
schedule on a replication-enabled source container, complete the following:
NOTE: If there is no Replication schedule set, but there is pending data that can be replicated, replication will run
when it detects the following: 1) there are no active data ingests, and 2) five minutes of system idle time have
elapsed since the last data file ingest completed.
NOTE: The Replication Schedule page displays the current DR Series system time zone and current timestamp
(using this format: US/Pacific, Tue Oct 28 14:53:02 2012.
To schedule Replication operations on your system, complete the following:
1. Select Schedules → Replication Schedule.
The Replication Schedule page is displayed.
2. Click to select the replication-enabled source container in the Container drop-down list.
The Replication schedule table is displayed with columns that identify the week day, start time, and stop time.
3. Click Schedule to create a new schedule (or click Edit Schedule to modify an existing Replication schedule).
