When multiple BCM instances have overlapping configuration definition files

If you have an environment where multiple BCM instances have overlapping copy group or disk
configuration definition files, you must use Replication Manager to distribute configuration definition
files from the primary server to the secondary server.

If you do not do this, Replication Manager will recognize existing overlapping configuration definition
files as different configuration definition files. (Under normal circumstances, configuration definition
files on the secondary side should be hidden.)

About application discovery

Application discovery is the process by which Replication Manager identifies the resources associated
with an application server and the backups server where the replicas are to be stored.

Once an instance of Application Agent is registered and the pair configuration (primary and secondary
volumes) set up, the discovery process proceeds and the resource information is collected or refreshed.
