Managing Replication Operations This topic describes using the DR Series system to manage data replication operations. Replication operations include various tasks, such as creating new replication relationships, managing or deleting existing replication relationships, starting and stopping replication, setting a replication bandwidth limit per host, displaying current replication statistics, and setting a replication schedule. The Replication page displays current information about replication relationships for the DR Series system. It lists the following information for all current replication relationships: • Storage Container Name • Replica Container • Cascaded Replica Container (if one exists) • Status of each container • Peer State, Estimated time to Sync, Network Savings, Encryption, Bandwidth and Schedule Status NOTE: Bandwidth is the replication bandwidth limit that you can set as Kibibytes per second (KiBps), Mebibytes per second (MiBps), Gibibytes per second (GiBps), or as an unlimited bandwidth (default). If no existing containers, replication relationships, or any scheduled replication operations have been added for the DR Series system, the only Replication-related option that is enabled on the Replication page is Create. TCP Port Configuration If you plan to perform replication operations across a firewall, the DR Series system replication service requires that the following fixed TCP ports be configured to support replication operations: • port 9904 • port 9911 • port 9915 • port 9916 Before you Begin Refer to the following important notes and guidelines for understanding and using replication in the DR Series system. • DMAs and Domain Relationships - To allow replication storage information to be viewed by a corresponding data management application (DMA), the target DR Series system must reside in the same domain as the source DR Series system in the replication relationship. • Replication Limits - 69

Managing Replication Operations
This topic describes using the DR Series system to manage data replication operations. Replication operations include
various tasks, such as creating new replication relationships, managing or deleting existing replication relationships,
starting and stopping replication, setting a replication bandwidth limit per host, displaying current replication statistics,
and setting a replication schedule.
The Replication page displays current information about replication relationships for the DR Series system. It lists the
following information for all current replication relationships:
•
Storage Container Name
•
Replica Container
•
Cascaded Replica Container (if one exists)
•
Status of each container
•
Peer State, Estimated time to Sync, Network Savings, Encryption, Bandwidth and Schedule Status
NOTE:
Bandwidth is the replication bandwidth limit that you can set as Kibibytes per second (KiBps), Mebibytes
per second (MiBps), Gibibytes per second (GiBps), or as an unlimited bandwidth (default).
If no existing containers, replication relationships, or any scheduled replication operations have been added for the DR
Series system, the only Replication-related option that is enabled on the Replication page is
Create.
TCP Port Configuration
If you plan to perform replication operations across a firewall, the DR Series system replication service requires that the
following fixed TCP ports be configured to support replication operations:
•
port 9904
•
port 9911
•
port 9915
•
port 9916
Before you Begin
Refer to the following important notes and guidelines for understanding and using replication in the DR Series system.
•
DMAs and Domain Relationships
— To allow replication storage information to be viewed by a corresponding data management application (DMA),
the target DR Series system must reside in the same domain as the source DR Series system in the replication
relationship.
