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
Adding a Replication Source on page 261
).
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 141
Performing a Failback For a Partition on page 151
).
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.
Replication Send
The
Replication Send
page allows you to manage outgoing replication activity for NAS shares or VTL
partitions. You can replicate shares or partitions on the DXi4700 (the source) to other DXi systems (the
targets). You can also schedule replication, and view the status of current and recent replication jobs.
Note:
Before you can replicate shares or partitions, you must specify a replication target (see
).
To access the
Replication Send
page, click the
Replication
menu, and then click the
Send
tab (see
).
