Pause Replication
When you pause replication, any replication operations for the NAS volume that are in progress are suspended. While replication is
paused, scheduled replications do not take place. If you require multiple replications to be paused, perform the following steps for
each replication. You can pause replication only from the source
FluidFS cluster.
1. Click the Storage view and select a FluidFS cluster.
2. Click the File System tab.
3. In the File System tab navigation pane, expand NAS Volumes and select a NAS volume.
4. In the right pane, click the Replications tab.
5. In the Replication Status area, click Pause Replication. The Pause Replication dialog box appears.
6. Click OK.
Resume Replication
When you resume replication, any replication operations that were in progress at the time the operation was paused will resume. In
addition, any replication schedules will resume at their next scheduled time. Replication may be resumed for individual NAS volumes.
You can resume replication only from the source
FluidFS cluster.
1. Click the Storage view and select a FluidFS cluster.
2. Click the File System tab.
3. In the File System tab navigation pane, expand NAS Volumes and select a NAS volume.
4. In the right pane, click the Replications tab.
5. In the Replication Status area, click Resume Replication. The Resume Replication dialog box appears.

Recovering an Individual NAS Volume
You can access or restore data from a target NAS volume if needed.
Promote a Target NAS Volume
Promoting a target NAS volume to a recovery NAS volume makes the target NAS volume writable, and clients can manually fail over
to it. This operation can be performed regardless of whether the source NAS volume is available. The recovery NAS volume's data
will be complete up to the point in time of the most recent successful replication. When you promote a target NAS volume, any
