replicate volume
Description
Creates a replication snapshot of the specified volume and initiates a replication operation. This
command can follow a
create replication-set
command that did not specify to initiate replication.
If the snapshot you want to replicate already exists, use the
replicate snapshot
command instead.
NOTE:
If replication requests are sent to a secondary system whose temporary replication license
has expired, the requests are queued but are not processed, and the secondary system reports event
472. If this condition occurs, check for this event in the event log, event-notification emails, and
SNMP traps. To continue using replication, purchase a permanent replication license.
