Connection settings

The Connection tab includes options that will be applied to the specified source/target connection.

Route

This setting identifies the Target IP Address that the Storage Mirroring data will be transmitted

through. You should only change this setting if you want to select a different route for Storage

Mirroring traffic. On a machine with more than one NIC, this increases the flexibility of configuring

Storage Mirroring activity. For example, you can separate regular network traffic and Storage

Mirroring traffic on a machine. The default ports will be used.
In a cluster, the route should be set to the name of the Exchange virtual server (EVS) dependent

IP address.

Protected Storage Groups

The Protected Storage Groups area displays the storage groups, mailbox, and public folder stores.
Select the Exchange storage groups that you want to protect. By selecting individual storage groups

to protect, you can reduce the amount of data being replicated and filter out storage groups that do

not need to be protected or failed over. Only the users associated with the selected storage groups

will be failed over. By default, all storage groups are selected for an Exchange source.
The replication set that the Application Manager generates will include the directories and files needed

to protect the selected storage groups. It is recommended that you protect all storage groups.

You can also select non-application specific data under the Volumes folder.

NOTE:

If you do not select all storage groups, you should make sure that other backups are

available from which to recover the storage groups that are not failed over.

Hewlett-Packard recommends that you place all query-based distribution groups in a

single organization container and give the target server full control rights to the

container and all child objects.

NOTE:

If Override Generated Rules is selected on the Advanced tab, this control will be

disabled.
