Sun Microsystems 7000 - Manual (Page 19)

4.3 Replication
Replication is configured at the project level only. All file systems or iSCSI LUNs contained within a
project will be asynchronously replicated on the same schedule to the target system. As the replication
is at the project level, this allows the administrator to intelligently group virtual machines or virtual
disk layouts based on replication needs. All objects within a specific project will be replicated with the
same policy.
To enable replication to another Sun Storage 7000 Unified Storage System:
1. Select Shares -> Projects.
2. Select the Project you wish to replicate and click the Edit Entry icon.
3. Select the Replication tab.
4. Click (+) to add a new replication target.
5. Fill in the target address and root user password. Select Continuous or Scheduled mode.
6. Click Add.
4.4 Accessing Replicated Data
To access the replicated data on the target system, the system must complete at least one successful
replication. After the data has finished replicating, the project can be accessed on the target system.
To access the replicated project, use the following procedure:
1. Log in to the target system.
2. Select Shares -> Replication.
3. Select the replicated project you wish to access.
4. Click (+) to Clone (export) this replica.
5. Give the replicated project a new clone project name.
6. Optionally change the mount points of any file systems in the project by using Override
Mountpoint. Click Continue.
The project, including all file systems and LUNs, is now available on the target system. Follow the
procedures on adding NFS file systems or iSCSI LUNs in VMware ESX to attach these shares to your
ESX server.
