for more information.) Then enter the target file system. Optionally, you can also specify a target
directory in the file system.

For replications to the same cluster and different file system, the Target Settings window asks for
the target file system. Optionally, you can also specify a target directory in the file system.

For replications to the same cluster and file system, the Target Settings window asks only for the
target directory. This field is required.

Specifying a target directory

Specifying a target directory is optional for remote cluster and same cluster/different file system
replications. It is required for same cluster/same file system replications. For example, you could
configure the following replication, which does not include a target directory:

Source directory: /srcFS/a/b/c

Exported file system and directory on target: /destFS/1/2/3

The contents of /srcFS/a/b/c are replicated to destFs/1/2/3/{contents_under_c}.

If you also specify the target directory a/b/c, the replication goes to /destFs/1/2/3/a/b/
c{contents_under_c}

.

IMPORTANT:

If you specify a target directory, be sure that it does not overlap with a previous

replication using the same target export.

Click Next when finished. The Summary window appears.
