Data Replication
Data replication is the process of creating and managing duplicate
versions of your data. The replication process not only copies the data but
also allows you to schedule the replication process so it can run
automatically. For optimization purposes, the underlying data is
continuously updated and will become available when the replication is
either run manually or via a scheduled replication. When replication is
configured on the DXi3500 or DXi5500, copies of a VTL partition or NAS
share can be copied to a remote DXi system (see
Data Replication
on
page 105).
