replication --delete --name <name> --role <source | target> [--force]

Description

Deletes an existing replication link to a container in a QoreStor.

NOTE: It is recommended that the replication be in an INSYNC state for this operation. If replication is not in an INSYNC state, this operation can potentially take a much longer time to run.

Syntax

replication --delete --name <name> --role <source | target> [--force]

Where

--name    Name of container.
--role    Role of container.
--force   Delete configuration even if peer container is unreachable. Replication must be stopped first even with force option.

If you attempt to delete a container that already has replication enabled, this displays the following message:

Replication on acme-59-replica is enabled and cannot be deleted, please stop it first.

NOTE: If the replication state of the link is enabled, you must use the replication --stop command to disable replication before you can delete the replication link. For more information, see replication --stop .

Deletes the existing replication link to a container.

replication --delete --name acme-59-replica --role source
 

Result

Successfully deleted replication entry.

NOTE: The QoreStor CLI --force command is optional, and this command allows you to force the deletion of an existing replication link (such as when communications between the source and target are not working). Before using the --force option, replication must be stopped with the replication --stop command. For more information, see replication --stop

replication --start --name <name> --role <source | target>

Description

Starts the replication process on an existing replication link to a container in a QoreStor.

Syntax

replication --start --name <name> --role <source | target>

Where

--name   Name of container.
--role   Role of container.

Result

Replication configuration updated successfully.

replication --stop --name <name> --role <source | target>

Description

Stops the replication process on an existing replication link to a container in a QoreStor.

Syntax

replication --stop --name <name> --role <source | target>

Where

--name   Name of container.
--role   Role of container.

Result

Replication configuration updated successfully.

replication --limit --speed <<num><KBps | MBps | GBps> | default> --target <ip address | hostname>

Description

Limits the bandwidth used during replication by defining a bandwidth limit using any of the following settings:

  • Kilobytes/second (KBps)
  • Megabytes/second (MBps)
  • Gigabytes/second (GBps)
  • Unlimited bandwidth (this is the default setting); minimum allowed bandwidth setting is 192 KBps

IMPORTANT: Bandwidth rules for all ports will be deleted. New rules will be applied by QoreStor with this command.

Syntax

replication --limit --speed <<num><KBps|MBps|GBps> | default> --target <ip address | hostname> [--air]

Where

--speed		Replication speed limit (eg. 10MBps).
--target	Replication peer IP address.
--air		Auto Image replication enabled.

Result

Successfully updated replication limit for acme-60 to 10 GBps.
Changing traffic control policies ... done.
