Tape or Other Device (Alternate location backup) Data is copied off of this HP Storage System to
tape, other disks, or other types of storage media. This enables long term storage and disaster
recovery. See

Scheduling backups

on page 29 for more information.

Replication (Live backup) Live data and snapshots (for target HP Storage Systems running ASM)
are copied from this HP Storage System to another system that is running HP StorageWorks Storage
Mirroring. See

Configuring replication

for more information.

From this window, you can also click Modify advanced properties to configure advanced settings for
backups and replication.

Backups, snapshots, and replication are disabled in ASM for an Exchange storage group or a SQL
Server database if one or more of the components of the Exchange storage group or SQL Server
database are not hosted. To host components for a storage group or database, start the Host an
Exchange Storage Group Wizard or Host a SQL Server Database Wizard as appropriate, select the
storage group or database, and then select the components on the
