Pausing or resuming a replication task
To pause a task, select it on the Remote Replication Tasks panel and click Pause. When you pause
a task, the status changes to PAUSED. Pausing a task that involves continuous data capture does
not stop the data capture. You must allocate space on the disk to avoid running out of space
because the data is captured but not moved. To resume a paused replication task, select the task
and click Resume. The status of the task then changes to RUNNING and the task continues from the
point where it was paused.
Stopping a replication task
To stop a task, select that task on the Remote Replication Tasks panel and click Stop. To view
stopped tasks, select Inactive Tasks from the lower Navigator. You can delete one or more tasks,
or see detailed information about the selected task.
Configuring and managing replication tasks from the CLI
NOTE: When configuring replication tasks, be sure to following the guidelines described in
“Overview” (page 100).
Starting a remote replication task to a remote cluster
Use the following command to start a continuous or run-once replication task to a remote cluster.
The command is executed from the source cluster.
ibrix_crr -s -f SRC_FSNAME [-o] [-S SRCDIR] –C TGT_CLUSTERNAME -F TGT_FSNAME [-X TGTEXPORT] [-P TGTDIR] [-R]
Use the –s option to start a continuous remote replication task. The applicable options are:
The source file system to be replicated.-f SRC_FSNAME
The remote target cluster.–C TGT_CLUSTERNAME
The remote target file system.-F TGT_FSNAME
The remote replication target (exported directory). The default is the root of the file
system.
NOTE: This option is used only for replication to a remote cluster. The file system
specified with -F and the directory specified with -X must both be exported from the
target cluster (target export).
-X TGTEXPORT
A directory under the remote replication target export (optional). This directory must
exist on the target, but does not need to be exported.
-P TGTDIR
Bypass retention compatibility checking.-R
Omit the -o option to start a continuous replication task. A continuous replication task does an
initial full synchronization and then continues to replicate any new changes made on the source.
Continuous replication tasks continue to run until you stop them manually.
Use the -o option for run-once tasks. This option synchronizes single directories or entire file systems
on the source and target in a single pass. If you do not specify a source directory with the -S
