CAUTION: If you discard a remote copy, the destination virtual disk and its data are deleted. Procedure This procedure uses the GUI. 1. In the navigation pane, select Virtual Disks. 2. On the List tab, select the source virtual disks you want to remove from a DR group pair. 3. Select Actions > Remove From DR Group. The Remove RSM Replication window opens. Follow the instructions in the window. Restoring virtual disks (Instant Restore) Restore a virtual disk by replacing its data with data from one of its replicas. Considerations • You can use the GUI, jobs, or the CLUI. See virtual disks actions cross reference. IMPORTANT: HP recommends restoring by using GUI actions. • The virtual disk to restore must already have a replica (mirrorclone, snapclone, or snapshot) that was created by the replication manager. Only those replicas can be selected in the Instant Restore wizard. • Before using the following procedure, ensure there is no host I/O to the virtual disk to restore or its replica. • If either disk is part of a host volume, do not use the procedure below. Instead, use the procedure restoring a host volume (Instant Restore). See also host volumes overview. • A virtual disk cannot be restored from a snapshot of its mirrorclone. To restore from a mirrorclone, the mirrorclone must be fractured. See fractured mirrorclones and fracturing mirrorclones. Procedure This procedure uses the GUI. 1. In the navigation pane, select Virtual Disks. 2. On the List tab, select the virtual disk to restore. 3. Select Actions > Instant Restore. The Instant Restore wizard opens. Follow the instructions in the wizard. Resynchronizing mirrorclones Restart the synchronized local replication from a source virtual disk to its mirrorclone. This action converts a fractured mirrorclone to a synchronized mirrorclone. See fractured mirrorclones and synchronized mirrorclones. Considerations • You can use the GUI, or jobs to resynchronize a mirrorclone to its source virtual disk. See virtual disks actions cross reference. • Guidelines apply. See virtual disks mirrorclone guidelines. HP StorageWorks Replication Solutions Manager 4.0.1 425
