Removing outgoing replication from the source Core

1. On the source Core, open the Rapid Recovery Core Console, and from the icon bar, click (Replication).

   The Replication page appears.

   In the Outgoing Replication pane, the summary table includes a row for each target Core that has been configured to replicate recovery points from this source Core.

2. Optionally, click the arrow to the right of any target Core.
   The view expands to show each of the protected machines from this source Core that are being replicated to the designated target Core.
3. Select the protected machines you want to remove from outgoing replication as follows:
   • To completely remove the existing replication relationship between this source Core and any target Core, click the (More) drop-down menu for any target Core, and then select Delete.
   • To remove outgoing replication for a subset of machines in the specified target Core, expand the view to show all machines being replicated, and select the check box for each replicated machine that you want to remove. Clear the checkbox for any machine you want to continue replicating. Then, from the menu above the summary table, click Delete.
   A confirmation message appears asking if you want to remove the replication relationships.
4. In the resulting dialog box, click Yes to confirm removal.

Removing incoming replication from the target Core

1. On the target Core, open the Rapid Recovery Core Console, and from the icon bar, click (Replication).
   The Replication page appears. In the Incoming Replication pane, the summary table includes a row for each source Core with protected machines that this target Core replicates.
2. Select the replicated machines to remove as follows:
   • To delete all machines replicated from the source Core to your target Core, in the Incoming Replication pane, select the check box for that Core.
   • To delete a smaller subset of machines from the same source Core, do the following:
     1. Click the arrow to the right of the source Core.
        The view expands to show each of the machines from the selected source Core that are replicated on your target Core.
     2. Select the check box for each replicated machine that you want to remove.
     3. From the parent row of the selected source Core, click the (More) drop-down menu, and then select Delete.
        The Remove Replication dialog box appears.
3. In the Remove Replication dialog box, do one of the following:
   • If you want to leave the replicated recovery points on the target Core, clear the option Delete existing recovery points.
   • If you want to delete all replicated recovery points received from that machine as well as remove the source Core from replication, select Delete existing recovery points.
4. Click Yes to confirm deletion.

   Caution: If you select this option, all of the recovery points replicated to this Core will be deleted.

   The selected machines protected on the source Core are removed from replication on this target Core. Optionally, if you selected the option to delete recovery points, they are removed from the repository of this Core.

Events

The Rapid Recovery Core includes predefined sets of events. These events can be used to notify administrators of critical issues on the Core or about issues with jobs pertaining to backups, virtual export, replication and so on.

This section describes how to view events displayed on the Rapid Recovery Core Console. You can also learn about event notification methods and configuration, including setting up email notifications. Finally, you can configure notifications to change the amount of time event logs are retained, and reduce repetitive event notification.
