Deleting a Mirrored Volume You can delete a volume, if required. Caution When you delete a volume or mirrored volume, all data is destroyed. To delete a volume: 1 In the Enterprise View, select the iSCSI Storage Host you want. 2 In the Volumes View, right-click the mirrored volume you want, then select Delete volume. 3 Click Yes to delete the volume. The Job Manager opens (see page 115) and the job begins. Backing Up Your Data with Replicas Replica is an upgrade feature. If the replica feature is locked, you must purchase the feature key from Adaptec Web site. Replicas are only supported on Windows and Linux operating systems. Adaptec Storage Manager's replication requires at least two iSCSI Storage Hosts, one deployed at a primary site, and one deployed at a secondary site. Data from a primary site (source) is copied to a secondary site (destination replica). After the data is copied, the destination replica can be broken away and mounted on the secondary site. To break an existing replica, see page 80. Specifying Replica Site Note To avoid a corrupted replica, ensure that no files are open or in use on the source logical drive before you begin this task. Before creating a replica for a iSCSI host, add a destination replica site. To add a replica site, 1 In the Enterprise View, select the iSCSI Storage Host you want replicate. 2 Right-click on the host and click Management Service Actions and then click Manage Replica Site Access. 3 The Manage Replica Site Access dialog opens. 4 Click Add.
