Remote Replication
Like snapshots, two different types of Remote Replication are supported on the MD storage arrays: legacy-based
synchronous Remote Replication (Fibre Channel only) and asynchronous Remote Replication (iSCSI and Fibre Channel).
Synchronous Remote Replication (Legacy-Based)
When the legacy-based synchronous Remote Replication premium feature is enabled on the MD storage array, the
Synchronous Remote Replication tab is displayed in the MD vCenter Plug-in. From this tab, existing remote replication
pairs are displayed which allows for creation of new replication pairs, suspending an existing replication pair, resuming
a replication pair, removing a replication pair, testing replication communications, or changing replication parameters.
