Chapter 3. Configuring replication
Use the applicable options on the ProtecTIER Service Menu to configure your
system for replication.
About this task
Once basic system configuration is complete, you can perform the tasks required to
configure your system for replication. To do so, you will need to complete the
pre-configuration tasks outlined in “Before you begin,” as well as “Accessing the
ProtecTIER Service Menu” through “Configuring static routes” on page 14, if
necessary.
Before you begin
This topic describes the prerequisites for configuring replication.
About this task
Replication configuration requires careful planning, decision-making, and
coordination of effort. Before you get started, it is strongly recommended that you
complete these tasks:
v Make sure that TCP ports 6520, 6530, 6540, 6550 are open in your firewall. Each
ProtecTIER server being used for replication must allow TCP access through
these ports.
v Ensure that the replication ports are on a different subnet than the external local
area network (LAN) port. Having the replication ports and the external LAN
port on the same subnet may cause replication errors.
In addition, IBM recommends that on all ProtecTIER nodes or servers involved
in Native Replication, you configure all rep1 ports on one subnet, and you
configure all rep2 ports on a different subnet.
v Identify the person (or persons) responsible for completing the planning
worksheets.
It is strongly recommended that the worksheets be filled out in advance by
someone with extensive knowledge of your organization's network and TCP/IP
configuration. This will ensure that the information is technically accurate and
readily available during replication setup.
v Identify the person (or persons) responsible for configuring the TARGET(S) and
SOURCE(S) servers for replication, depending on the replication topology you
are using.
This may or may not be the same person (or persons) who completed the
worksheets.
v If replication throughput in excess of 1GbE is required for DD6 replication,
ensure the network infrastructure accepts 10Gbase-T connections.
After completing the above tasks, return to this page and go to “Accessing the
ProtecTIER Service Menu.”
