HP StoreOnce Backup System Concepts and Configuration Guidelines (BB877-90913, November 2013)

12 Seeding methods in more detail
While the concepts described in this chapter apply to all HP StoreOnce Backup systems, the
diagrams in this chapter illustrate single node systems only. There is a separate chapter that illustrates
how to implement replication and seeding with the HP StoreOnce B6200 Backup system.
Seeding over a WAN link
With this seeding method the final replication set-up (mappings) can be established immediately.
In the active-passive replication model, WAN seeding over the first backup is, in fact, the first
wholesale replication.
