Analyzing and Synchronizing the Repository

You can use HP 3PAR Recovery Manager to compare and synchronize virtual copies in the HP
3PAR Recovery Manager repository with the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage System. You can also
schedule HP 3PAR Recovery Manager to automatically analyze and synchronize (if desired) the
repository with the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage System.

Manually Analyzing and Synchronizing the Repository

To manually analyze and synchronize (if desired) a mailbox database/storage group repository
with the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage System:
1.

Under Virtual Copy Management in the node tree pane, right-click the mailbox
database/storage group you want to analyze, and select Analyze.

2.

To automatically synchronize the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage System and the repository (if
necessary), select the Synchronize result with Repository checkbox.

To analyze the repository without synchronizing it, clear the Synchronize result with Repository
checkbox.

3.

To analyze immediately, click Finish.

If you select Synchronize result with Repository checkbox, HP 3PAR Recovery Manager
analyzes the repository, synchronizes the repository and the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage
System (if necessary), and updates the list of virtual copies under the Virtual Copy
Management node in the node tree pane.

If you opt to only analyze the repository, HP 3PAR Recovery Manager displays the Analyze
Repository dialog box and performs the analysis. To view the list of virtual copies not in
the repository, if any, click the Detail button in the Analyze Repository dialog box.

To synchronize the results (if necessary), repeat the above steps to launch the Analyze Repository
dialog box. Select the Synchronize result with Repository checkbox before continuing.

Scheduling Automatic Repository Analysis and Synchronization

group repository with the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage System:

Under Virtual Copy Management in the node tree pane, right-click the mailbox
database/storage group you want to analyze, and select Analyze.

2.

To automatically synchronize the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage System and the repository (if
necessary), select the Synchronize result with Repository checkbox in the Analyze Repository
dialog box.
