• Physical Capacity - Enter the physical capacity of the LSU (1
to 1048576 GB).
Note: Quantum recommends setting LSUs to maximum
size (1048576 GB) because spanning them on a
backup is not possible.
3 (Optional) In the Description box, enter a brief description of the
LSU.
4 (Optional) Select the Enable Automatic Image Replication check
box to automatically replicate (duplicate) data on the LSU to a
remote LSU on another DXi.
Automatic Image Replication (AIR) is disabled by default. If enabled,
data on an LSU is automatically replicated to a remote LSU that
resides on a DXi in a different NetBackup domain. The timing of the
duplication, as well as the backup images that are duplicated, are
determined by the storage lifecycle policies (SLPs) configured in
NetBackup.
OST AIR requires NetBackup 7.1 or higher. For information about
configuring NetBackup for Automatic Image Replication, see the
DXi-Series Symantec NetBackup OST Configuration Guide

Note: To configure the target DXi, see Replication Send on
page 309.
• Remote LSU Name - The name of the LSU in the remote storage
server that will receive the replicated data.
• Remote User - The OST user credentials to use for
authentication on the remote (target) DXi. The selected remote
