This example shows the resume remoteReplicationGroup command:
resume asyncRemoteReplicationGroup ["asyncRemoteReplicationGroupName"];

Deleting A Remote Replication Group

Use the delete asyncRemoteReplicationGroup command to delete one or more replication groups
from the local or remote storage array. The replication group you are attempting to delete must be
empty (contain no virtual disks or replicated pairs) before running this command.
This example shows the delete asyncRemoteReplicationGroup command:
c:\...\smX\client>smcli 123.45.67.88 123.45.67.89
-c delete asyncRemoteReplicationGroup["replication_group_name"];
To delete all replication groups from the local and remote storage arrays, use the delete
allAsyncRemoteReplicationGroups command.
To delete selected replication groups, separate group names with "":
delete asyncRemoteReplicationGroups ["name1""name2"];
Removing A Virtual Disk Or Repository Virtual Disk From
A Remote Replication Group
Use the remove virtualDisk command to remove either a member virtual disk or repository virtual
disk from an existing replication group. This command can only be run on the local storage array
containing the replication group affected by the command.
The command shown below removes diskname from the replication group named groupname. Using the
optional deleteRepositoryMembers parameter with a value of TRUE also delete the repository virtual
disk members:
remove virtualDisk ["diskname"]
asyncRemoteReplicationGroup="groupname"
deleteRepositoryMembers=TRUE;

Disabling The Remote Replication Premium Feature

You disable the Remote Replication premium feature to prevent the new replication relationship from
being created. When you disable the Remote Replication premium feature, the premium feature is in a
Disabled/Active state. In this state, you can maintain and manage previously existing replication
relationships; however, you cannot create new relationships. To disable the Remote Replication premium
feature, use this command:
disable storageArray feature=asyncReplication;

Deactivating The Remote Replication Premium Feature

If you no longer require the Remote Replication premium feature and you have removed all of the
replication relationships (replication groups and replicated pairs), you can deactivate the premium
feature. Deactivating the premium feature re-establishes the normal use of dedicated ports on both
storage arrays and deletes replication repository virtual disks. To deactivate the Remote Replication
premium feature, use this command:
deactivate storageArray feature=asyncReplication;
