a mapping between the source cluster and the target export that receives the replicated data.
This mapping ensures that only the specified source cluster can write to the target export.

Identify server assignments to use for remote replication. Select the servers and corresponding
NICs to handle replication requests, or use the default assignments. The default server
assignment is to use all servers that have the file system mounted.

NOTE:

Do not add or change files on the target system outside of a replication operation. Doing

this can prevent replication from working properly.

GUI procedure

This procedure must be run from the target cluster, and is not required or applicable for intracluster
replication.

Select the file system on the GUI, and then select Remote Replication Exports from the lower
Navigator. On the Remote Replication Exports bottom panel, select Add. The Create Remote
Replication Export dialog box allows you to specify the target export for the replication. The mount
point of the file system is displayed as the default export path. You can add a directory to the
target export.

The Server Assignments section allows you to specify server assignments for the export. Check the
box adjacent to Server to use the default assignments. If you choose to assign particular servers
to handle replication requests, select those servers and then select the appropriate NICs.

If the remote cluster does not appear in the selection list for Export To (Cluster), you will need to
register the cluster. Select New to open the Add Remote Cluster dialog box and then enter the
requested information.
