A feature pack is a predefined set of premium features, such as Storage Partitioning and Remote Replication. These
premium features are combined for the convenience of the users.
A premium feature is an additional application to enhance the capabilities of a storage array.

array. When you enable the High Performance Tier premium feature, both RAID controller modules in the storage
array immediately reboot.

Establish Remote Replicated Pair

Description

Use this command to complete a remote replicated pair on the remote storage array by adding a secondary virtual disk
to an existing remote replication group. Before you run this command, the remote replication group must exist and the
primary virtual disk must exist in the remote replication group. After this command successfully completes, remote
replication starts between the primary virtual disk and the secondary virtual disk.
The two virtual disks comprising a remote replicated pair function as a single entity. Establishing a remote replicated
pair allows you to perform actions on the entire replicated pair versus the two individual virtual disks.

Syntax

establish asyncRemoteReplication virtualDisk="secondaryVirtualDiskName"

asyncRemoteReplicationGroup="asyncRemoteReplicationGroupName"

primaryVirtualDisk="primayVirtualDiskName"

Parameters

Parameter

Description

asyncRemoteReplication

The name of an existing virtual disk on the remote storage
array that you want to use for the secondary virtual disk.
