Replication CLI Commands
Note:
This command disables replication for all targets configured for the
VTL. You cannot enable replication for a single target. Instead, run the
following command to allow or disallow replication to a particular
target:
syscli --add/del <vtltarget> --name <vtl_name> --target
<host_name_or_ip>
Note:
Before editing replication settings (using
--enablerep vtl
,
--disablerep
vtl
), first disable Cartridge Based replication (using
--disable cartrep
),
then add and remove targets (using
--add vtltarget
or
--del vtltarget
).
Enabling NAS Share
Replication Options on
the Source
syscli --enablerep nas --name <nas_share> [--filedirbase] [--syncid
<sync_id>]
This CLI command allows the admin user to enable replication of the NAS share
on the system as a source. The NAS share name must be specified. If the --syncid
is not specified when --filedirbase is specified, the default Sync ID is the same as
the NAS share name (similar to the GUI). If no optional parameter is specified,
the replication is enabled without the file/directory base options set.
Note:
The target system must have the corresponding NAS share configured
with a Sync ID prior to configuring the source system partition. Refer to
Enabling NAS File/Directory Based Replication on the Target
Note:
This command enables replication for all targets configured for the
NAS share. You cannot enable replication for a single target. Instead,
run the following command to allow or disallow replication to a
particular target:
syscli --add/del <nastarget> --name <nas_name>
--target <host_name_or_ip>
Note:
Before editing replication settings (using
--enablerep nas
,
--disablerep
nas
), first disable File/Directory Based replication (using
--disable
filedirrep
), then add and remove targets (using
--add nastarget
or
--
del nastarget
).
Disabling NAS Share
Replication Options on
the Source
syscli --disablerep nas --name <nas_share> [--nofiledirbase]
This CLI command allows the admin user to disable the replication feature and
its options on a NAS share. If the
--nofiledirbase
option is specified, the file/
directory base replication option is disabled. If no option is specified, the whole
replication is disabled for the specified NAS share.
Note:
This command disables replication for all targets configured for the
NAS share. You cannot enable replication for a single target. Instead,
run the following command to allow or disallow replication to a
particular target:
syscli --add/del <nastarget> --name <nas_name>
--target <host_name_or_ip>
