This chapter covers the Replication Management functions and how to operate its functions.
Only the manager and agent after ETERNUS SF AdvancedCopy Manager 13.0 can use a replication management screen.
The purpose of the Replication management is to reduce the load in Replication operation and management work in distribution systems. It provides the following functions through the Web browser:
Set Replication Information Screen
Replication processing is set up.
Synchronous replication function
Synchronous replication using EC/REC can be performed.
Snapshot replication function
Snapshot replication using OPC/QuickOPC/SnapOPC can be performed.
When [Replication Management] is selected from the AdvancedCopy Manager initial window, the Replication management server list is displayed.
A replication management screen can choose two kinds of following display methods.
View by Volume
View by Group
The display method can be changed by choosing "View by Volume", or "View by Group" in "View."
The Replication management tree view (Figure 4.1) shows the selection target items (1) to (8). Each item has its corresponding list view.
