Setting or Modifying a DroboDR Schedule
The following steps assume you have already set up two
Drobo
devices on your network for data
Setting Up Your Drobo Device to Use DroboDR
All synchronizations are set and managed from the
source
Drobo device only. After the initial
synchronization, which may take the longest, DroboDR simply updates the destination with only the
changes from the source for rapid, efficient data replication.
To schedule synchronization or modify the schedule for one, do the following.
Note:
You need to be logged in as the administrator on the appropriate Drobo device to
perform this action.
1.
In Drobo Dashboard, on the
All Drobos
page, select the Drobo device that is designated as
the
source
.
2.
Click the
DroboDR
option on the
Navigation
menu. The
DroboDR
page opens.
3.
Click the
Setup
DroboDR
button. The
Setup
DroboDR
dialog page opens.
Note:
If this button is disabled, then it could be that this is the target system, DroboDR is
disabled or the disk pack is not viable. To enable this Drobo device as the source again,
see
Configuring the Source Drobo Device
4.
Select or modify a start time for the synchronization from the
Start Time
drop-down lists.
5.
Set how often to run the synchronization, in hours, from the Interval drop-down list.

When finished, click the

button.
Note:
If the power to the source is interrupted during a scheduled synchronization, data
replication will stop and then will synchronize again at the next scheduled interval.
