Replicating the database

How to replicate the database:

1. Click

System

> Tools

in the tree view.

2. Double-click

Replicate data

.

The

Replicate database

window lists the installed destinations to which the data-

base of the master matrix switch is replicated.

3. Under

Port configuration

, you can define if you want to replicate the port configura-

tion on the source devices.

4. Optional: Add or delete a destination or change its address settings if

required (see page 150).

5. Click

Continue

.

The configuration settings are subsequently copied to the different devices. All

status information are displayed and updated during the replication.

6. Click

IMPORTANT:

The user account from which you accessed the web application of

the master matrix switch is automatically used to log in to the destinations.
Please make sure that the user account exists on all destinations and holds the

superuser right!

NOTE:

When establishing the connection to the devices, a symbol with a red

dot is displayed next to the destinations.
If the connection has been established, the device symbol and device name are

shown in brackets.

NOTE:

If the number of ports differs between source device and target device,

the corresponding settings are not replicated.

IMPORTANT:

A message alerts you about any problems that might occur during

the replication of target groups, global scan sets and/or global select key sets.
Please choose between the following options:

All on this matrix switch:

overwrite all existing target data of this type (target

groups, global scan sets or global select key sets) on this device

All on all matrix switches:

overwrite all existing target data of this type on all

devices
