Encryption
The type of encryption used when sending replicated data to the target system
(
None
,
128-bit
, or
256-bit
).
Original Data Size
The original, native size of data sent during replication or failback. This value does
not represent the amount of data actually sent over the network during replication
or failback because data is deduplicated and compressed before being sent.
Actual Data Sent
The amount of data actually sent over the network during replication or failback.
This value is usually much less than the
Original Data Size
due to the benefits of
data deduplication and compression.
Average Send Rate
The average send rate (in B/s) of data sent over the network during replication or
failback (
Actual Data Sent
divided by the amount of time required to complete
replication or failback).
You can customize the appearance of the
DXis
list in the following ways:
l
Click the top banner row of the list to collapse or expand the list.
l
Click the arrow to the right of a column heading and select
Sort Ascending
or
Sort Descending
to sort
the rows in the table by that column.
l
To show or hide a column, click the arrow to the right of a column heading, and then click
Columns
.
Select the check box to show a column, or clear the check box to hide a column.
Note:
The statistics in the
Target DXis
list are for each target DXi rather than a cumulative total for all
targets as is displayed on the
Home
page.
Adding a Replication Target
Add a replication target to configure the DXi6900 to send replicated data to that target. You can add up to
two targets. After you add a target, you can enable replication to that target for a NAS share or VTL partition.
When replication is enabled for a share or partition, replicated data is sent to the target system during
scheduled or manual replication.
Additional Information
l
Before you can add a replication target, you must add the DXi to the list of allowed replication sources
on the target DXi (see
Adding a Replication Source on page 275
).
l
To add a new target when two targets are already configured, first delete one target (see
Replication Target on page 273
). Then add the new target.
l
For more information about enabling and scheduling replication for a share or partition, see
