Context
The link between a local storage device and a remote storage device can be a Fibre Channel
link or an iSCSI link.
NOTE
l
On a Fibre Channel network, clear zone configurations of ports connecting to the storage system
from the switch before adding the remote device. You are advised to allocate two ports in one zone
to prevent excessive remote links because too many ports in one zone.
l
A maximum of eight links are available between a controller and a remote device, and
HyperReplication can use all of them as the replication links between the local and remote devices.

To ensure data transfer security among storage systems, you are advised to use a device
such as a security gateway to encrypt links to prevent information leakage.
l
If the version of the local device is different from that of the remote device, you need to
add a remote device on the newer version device. Otherwise the operation may fail.
Step 5
