Note:
After you recover a partition, if you want to continue backing
up data to the partition, you must remap your backup
application to point to the target system instead of the source
system.
Performing a Failback For a Partition
Perform a failback of a VTL partition if a source system that was
previously unavailable becomes available again. When you failback a
partition, you select a received snapshot. The DXi8500 copies the
snapshot from the target system back to the source system. You can
then perform a recover operation to recreate the partition on the source
system just as it was at the point in time when the snapshot was saved.
Note:
Before you can failback a partition, on the original source
system, you must add the original target system to the list of
allowed replication sources (see
Replication Receive
on
page 312). This is because, during failback, the original target
is acting as a source when it sends a snapshot to the original
source.
To perform a partition failback:
1
On the target system, select a snapshot in the
Snapshots List
and
click
Failback
.
The
Failback Target
page displays (see
Figure 116
).
