Slot mapping details
The two tabs at the bottom of this page show more detailed mapping information for the selected
library and slot mapping.
Library Details tab
This tab details mapping details between source and target libraries. If a source library has been
selected, it will tell you whether Recovery is in process; if a target library has been selected, it will
tell you whether the target library is visible to the host. All other information is identical for both
source and target libraries. For example, use this tab to find out:
•
The number of mapped slots and replication status
•
The average throughput of data
You can only edit the Mapping Name on this tab.
Slot Details tab
This tab displays details for each mapped slot in the selected slot mapping. It includes average
throughput data for each slot. If you have selected a source library, you will be able to:
•
Edit the Target Slot to which a Source Slot is mapped.
•
Enable the Recover First checkbox, which enables a user to request that a mapped slot be
recovered from Target to Source, if required.
The replication wizards
When you select a Non-Replicating library, you will be able to run the Replication or Recovering
wizard.
•
Use the Replication wizard to create slot mappings for the non-replicating library; it becomes
a Source library. See
Running the replication wizard (virtual tape devices)
for more information.
•
Use the Recovery wizard to recover cartridges from a Target Library. See
for more information.
Running the replication wizard (virtual tape devices)
The Replication Wizard is used to create new mappings between Non-Replicating Libraries (which
become Replication Source Libraries) and either existing or new Target Libraries.
1.
Create a Non-Replicating Library on the Source Appliance.
2.
Create a backup rotation scheme and allow the first full backup to run.
3.
Decide how you will seed the first full backup on the Target Appliance. Are you seeding across
the WAN or have you been able to colocate the Target Appliance on the same LAN as the
Source Appliance? See the HP StoreOnce Backup System Concepts Guide for a more detailed
discussion about seeding.
4.
Go to the Replication-Virtual Tape Mappings page and select a Non-Replicating Library to be
converted to a Replication Source Library.
