Deleting tasks

You can delete tasks related to operations on copy pairs that were registered when the Pair
Configuration Wizard or the Change Pair Status Wizard completed an operation, or when a copy
pair associated with a remote path was deleted. You can only delete tasks that have the Cancel,
Failure, Warning or Success status. When a task is deleted the task information is deleted from the
repository. Resources reserved by a task are released when all the related workflows are deleted.

Once a task has completed and the retention period has expired, it is automatically deleted from the
Task List. Users with the Admin (Replication Manager management) permission can manage the
retention period. For details on how to check the retention period of a task, see “

About distributing copy group definitions

Replication Manager supports the distribution of copy group configuration definition files to alternate
hosts. This capability enables uninterrupted pair management in the event of disaster at the primary
site. During pair configuration using the Pair Configuration Wizard, you can select Mainframe hosts
from a list of alternate host candidates identified by Replication Manager. Upon completion of pair
configuration, Replication Manager distributes the copy group list created during pair configuration
to these distribution targets.

The following two types of copy group definition file distribution are possible:

Normal distribution: Distribution of copy group definition file from the user-selected BCM or XP7
mainframe agent host to the target BCM or XP7 mainframe agent host. The copy group definition
file is distributed to all hosts that satisfy the distribution prerequisites. For details of copy group
distribution prerequisites, see

Prerequisites for distribution destination hosts (copy group defini-

tions)

” on page 182. The copy group definition file can be distributed to multiple destination hosts

(targets). This distribution occurs when the Distribute the configuration to all the candidates of
primary host when creating the file check box is selected in the Edit Group window.
