Raw disks When a host volume is not controlled and formatted by a host file system, it is termed a raw disk or raw storage. Typically, the host's I/O with a raw disk is under the direct control of a database or a similar application. Raw disks are typically used to improve I/O performance or facilitate the creation disk-image copies. You can use the replication manager to work with raw disks. See host volumes using raw disks. Local replication wizard The local replication wizard allows you to make point-in-time copies of a host volume, host volume group, or host disk device. The wizard generates replication manager jobs and keeps track of your replication actions in the replica repository. See creating replicas and replica repository. You can restore a host volume from the replicas in the repository. See restoring host volumes (Instant Restore). Replica Repository The replica repository feature supports use of the local replication wizard and the instant restore wizard.
