Seeding from a Dell™ DR Series System to an External Device | August 2014

• Once the data on the device is imported, the seed import process will not delete the data on the seed

location. You could use the same data, or the device, to import the data on a different DR Series
system if needed (for example, to setup cascaded replication). However, it is recommended that you
remove the data after replication setup is complete.
