Connect
Command CONNECT
Description Establishes a connection between a replication set and a target machine
Syntax
CONNECT <repset> TO <target> MAP EXACT
| MAP BASE <
target_path>
| MAP <source_path> TO <target_path> [,...]
[MIRROR | NOMIRROR] [, REPLICATE | NOREPLICATE]
[, MONITOR | NOMONITOR] [, ORPHANS | NOORPHANS]
[, COMPRESSION <
level>] [CLEARRESTOREREQUIRED]
Options
 repset—Name of the replication set
 target—Name of the target, an IP address on the target, or a virtual IP
address
 MAP EXACT—Specifies that the replication set data will be sent to the
same logical volume or block device on the target
 MAP BASE target_path—Substitute a complete path where you want
the replicated data to be stored on the target. For a block device, the
target will be a flat file on the file system under the specified path. A
loopback device will be needed to access the device.
Options
 MAP source_path TO target_path—Specify a custom location (a file
location, a device in /dev, a loop device in /dev that is attached to another
device or file, or a loop device that is attached to another device or file
using DTLOOP) that specifies each directory on the source and where that
data will be copied to on the target machine
 ...—Indicates that the source_path TO target_path option can be used
more than once for each source directory in the replication set
 MIRROR—Automatically initiates a mirror when the connection is
established
 NOMIRROR—Does not initiate a mirror when the connection is
established
 REPLICATE—Automatically initiates replication when the connection is
established
 NOREPLICATE—Does not initiate replication when the connection is
established
 MONITOR—Specifies that the target is going to monitor the specified
source machine for failover. The source machine must have already been
defined as a monitor machine.
 NOMONITOR—Specifies that the target is not going to monitor the
source machine for failover
 ORPHANS—Moves or deletes orphan files on the target
 NOORPHANS—Does not move or delete orphan files on the target
 COMPRESSION level—Enables compression of data being sent to the
target at the level specified. Valid levels are 1 (minimum), 2 (moderate),
or 3 (maximum).
 CLEARRESTOREREQUIRED—Clears the restore required flag and
initiates the connection
Examples
 connect DataFiles to beta map exact
 connect UserData to beta map base /dev
 connect UserFiles to beta map exact orphans,
