Configuring the replication set

Application Manager automatically creates a replication set with a name based on the
application you are protecting. The list below contains the default replication set names,
where source and target are the names of the respective servers.

l

Exchange—xdag01_source_target

l

SQL—sqldag01_source_target

l

File server—fileprint_source_target

l

BlackBerry—BB_source_target

Application Manager selects all of the necessary directories and files to add to your
replication set to protect your application. You should only modify the replication set
definition if there are additional directories or files that you want to protect. Do not modify
the rules unless you are familiar with Storage Mirroring Recover and your application.

Exchange Note: If you are protecting Exchange and want to protect the Badmail folder,

you will need to manually add it using the instructions below.

SQL Note:

If you are protecting SQL, the folder that contains a database’s

FILESTREAM data will automatically be included in the replication
set for protection if the database is included for protection. Any steps
previously taken to enable FILESTREAM support on the source (for
instance, file system or operating system-level changes that were
made specifically to support FILESTREAM) must also be applied
similarly to the target for consistency. Failure to account for
FILESTREAM-specific changes on the target server, or specifically
excluding FILESTREAM data files/paths from the replication set, can
impact SQL Server’s ability to mount a database with FILESTREAM
data when failing over.

the main Application Manager page, and then select the Advanced tab.

Note: The fields on the Advanced tab will vary depending on the type of

application you are protecting. In addition, the fields will vary depending on
