Job templates Job templates allow you to quickly create typical jobs, for example, making local or remote copies of virtual disks. See job templates list. Job commands You can also create custom jobs from the set of specialized job commands. See job commands list. Simulation mode For more information, see the HP StorageWorks Replication Solutions Manager Simulation guide. The guide is available from the help menu of the replication manager GUI and from the HP Storage web site. See "Helpful web sites" on page 19. CAUTION: HP strongly recommends that you do not run simulation mode on a production machine (that is, on the same machine as Command View EVA). If you disconnect the replication manager from Command View EVA, you lose control of the storage resources that were being managed by the replication manager. If you purge the replication manager database and have not backed it up, you will lose all jobs. Overview Simulation mode allows you to use all of the functions of the replication manager without having to use any of your production data or resources. These functions include creating snapshots and snapclones, creating DR groups and adding virtual disks to them, and performing failovers. Features and benefits: • No SAN infrastructure, storage arrays, hosts, or management servers are required. • Requires only replication manager server software running on a business class Windows desktop or laptop computer. 28 Replication Solutions Manager
