Set up Remote Storage Centers and Relication QoS
If you want to protect your data by replicating volumes from one Storage Center to another, set up connectivity between your Storage
Centers. Create Replication Quality of Service (QoS) denitions on each Storage Center to control how much bandwidth is used to
transmit data to remote Storage Centers.
