Pausing and resuming replication – HP X1000 Network Storage Systems User Manual
Page 41
IMPORTANT:
In order to use replication with the HP Storage System, HP StorageWorks Storage Mirroring version
5.0.2 or later must be installed on the replication source and all replication targets. To install a trial
version of HP StorageWorks Storage Mirroring, in the HP Storage System Management console,
double-click
Data Protection and then click HP StorageWorks Storage Mirroring.
1.
Select an Exchange storage group, SQL Server database, user-defined application, or shared
folder in the content pane.
2.
In the Actions pane, click Configure Replication. The Replication property tab is displayed.
3.
Click Add. The Add Replication Target dialog box displays.
4.
Enter the IP address (IPv4) or hostname of a server to add as a replication target for the storage
component being configured and then click Add. The Replication Target Properties dialog box
displays.
5.
Do one of the following:
• Select Configure storage automatically to allow Automated Storage Manager to automatically
provision disk space on the target replication system. This option is available only if the target
system is also running ASM. Click Modify storage configuration to change the target storage
configuration.
• Select Manually choose a storage path to enter a drive and folder path where data will be
replicated on the target system.
6.
In the Replication set name field, accept the default name or type a new name for the replication
set.
7.
From the Target network list, select a network on the replication target through which to route all
replication traffic.
8.
Click OK.
9.
To configure additional replication targets for this component, click Add and repeat steps 4
through 9. When configuring multiple replication targets from a single replication source, snapshots
from the replication source are replicated to all replication targets.
NOTE:
By default, compression is disabled for replication. In order to enable compression and configure
other settings such as bandwidth throttling and transmission schedules, you must use the HP
StorageWorks Storage Mirroring Management Console.
NOTE:
If replication is enabled and the replication target is an ASM, snapshots are replicated to the target
side.
Pausing and resuming replication
When replication is paused, all changed data is queued on the source system. The changed data is
not replicated to the target system until replication is resumed.
