HP P6000 Replication Solutions Manager Administrator Guide (T3680-96069, June 2012)

Performing tasks
In a replication manager environment, you can perform tasks in three ways:
• GUI—The GUI window provides a menu bar, toolbar, navigation pane, content pane, event
pane, and status bar.
• CLUI—The replication manager includes a CLUI server and client in the server software, and
a CLUI remote client in the host agent software.
• Create a job—You can use the GUI to create a job. When you create a job, you define which
tasks (commands) a job will perform, the order in which the commands will be executed, and
the parameters for each command.
For example, Table 2 (page 27) provides a cross-reference for performing typical tasks on virtual
disks.
