Analyzing and Synchronizing the Repository

You can use Recovery Manager to compare and synchronize virtual copies in the Recovery Manager
repository with the HP 3PAR Storage System.
1.

In the node tree pane, right-click the SQL production server, and select Analyze.

2.

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

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

3.

Click Yes.

Depending on whether you are both analyzing and synchronizing the repository or just
analyzing the repository, Recovery Manager does the following:

If you opt to automatically synchronize the results, Recovery Manager analyzes the
repository, synchronizes the repository and the HP 3PAR 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, 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. Be sure to check the Synchronize result with Repository checkbox
before continuing.
