partition, it is restored on the source system just as it was at the point in
time when the snapshot was saved.
To perform a share or partition failback:
1 On the original source system, add the original target system to the
list of allowed replication sources (see Replication Receive on
page 312).
Note: For the purposes of failback, the original source system is
now acting as a target because it will receive the snapshot
from the original target system.
2 On the original target system, select a received snapshot and
perform a failback operation pointing to the original source system,
and then recover the share or partition on the original source
system (see Performing a Failback For a Share on page 194 or
Performing a Failback For a Partition on page 208).
The share or partition is now available on the original source
system.
3 (Optional) If necessary, map your backup application to the restored
share or partition on the original source system.
Send NAS
The Send NAS page allows you to manage outgoing replication activity
for NAS shares. You can replicate shares on the DXi8500 (the source) to
another DXi system that supports NAS (the target).
Note: Before you can replicate shares, you must specify the
replication target (see Replication Send on page 309).
To access the
Send NAS
page, click the
Replication
menu, and then
click the Send > NAS tab (see Figure 100 ).
