Allowing Remote Mirroring Access
Allows remote mirroring operations initiated from the remote target.
target_mirroring_allow target=TargetName
Parameters:
Name Type Description Mandatory
target Object name Remote target name. Y
This command is performed on a local storage system in order to allow the target
storage system permission to read, write, view, create volumes and define existing
volumes as slaves. This command is used when allowing remote mirroring
operations. Otherwise, the target storage system cannot access the local storage
system. This command also allows a remote target to read and write through the
SCSI interface.
Once mirroring is allowed, this permission cannot be revoked.
This operation should also be run on the target storage system so that it gives
permission to the local storage system to access it.
Note:
This step must be performed before mirroring is defined (mirror_create).
Example:
target_mirroring_allow target=Nextra2
