Configuring replication schedules

Configuring replication schedules

You can configure replication schedules on a weekly basis for individual replication-enabled source containers.

 
NOTE: If there is no Replication schedule set, but there is pending data that can be replicated, replication will run when it detects three (3) minutes of idle time for any newly written files in the replicated container.
 
NOTE: It is recommended that you do not schedule the running of any Replication operations during the same time period when Cleaner or data ingest operations will be running. If you do not follow this recommendation, the time required to complete the system operations or system performance might be affected.

To configure replication schedules, complete the following steps.

1.
On the left navigation menu, click System Configuration > Schedules.

The Schedules page is displayed, showing a weekly/daily calendar representation of currently scheduled operations.

2.
To view the Replication Schedule, in the Replication Schedule drop-down list, you can select one of the following types of replication schedules to view:
◦
None
◦
All Containers
◦
Source:
▪
All
▪
<A specific backup
container>
◦
Target:
▪
All
▪
<A specific backup container>
3.
To add a replication schedule, on the Action menu in the upper right corner of the page, click Add Replication Event.
a.
In the Replication pane, select the replication container for which you want to schedule replication in the Set Event to Container drop-down list.
b.
In the Day drop-down list, select the day for the schedule to run.
c.
In the From and To drop-down lists, select the time (hour) of the day for the replication to run.
d.
Click Save.

You can view replication details and status on the Replications page in the DR Series system GUI by selecting a replication and clicking to expand and view details. The current replication status is also shown on the GlobalView page by expanding the detailed view of a selected DR Series system.

Configuring an SSL certificate for your DR Series system

Configuring an SSL certificate for your DR Series system

Installing an SSL certificate
Resetting the SSL Certificate
Installing a CA certificate
Generating a CSR

For additional security, you can replace the self-signed, factory-installed Dell certificate with another SSL certificate, for example, with one that is signed by a third-party CA. Once you have obtained your signed certificate, you can install it by using the DR Series system GUI. Only one certificate can be installed on a DR Series system at any given point in time.

To view the SSL Certificate page, on the left navigation menu, click System Configuration > SSL Certificate.

Installing an SSL certificate

Installing an SSL certificate

To install an SSL certificate, complete the following steps:

1.
In the left navigation menu, click System Configuration → SSL Certificate.
The SSL Certificate page is displayed.
2.
Next to Certificate File Location, click Browse to locate and select the SSL certificate on your system that you want to install.
 
NOTE: Only .pem formatted SSL certificates are supported.
3.
On the SSL Certificate page, click Install Certificate.
The Install SSL Certificate dialog box is displayed.
4.
In the Install SSL Certificate dialog box, click Continue.
Unless corrupted or expired, certificates files of .pem format type with less than 2048-bit encryption should successfully verify.
5.
In the certificate Validation dialog box, click Continue.
In the event you see the Certificate Verification Failed dialog box, clicking on “Continue” here will generate a connection reset in the browser. You will still be allowed to continue with certificate installation. Upon successful installation of a certificate, an HTTP server restart is performed, and the browser will move to a connection reset state.
 
NOTE: If your browser cannot connect to a DR Series system after a certificate installation, you may need to reset the certificate from the command line interface (CLI) using “maintenance --configuration -- reset_web_certificate”. Refer to the DR Series Command Line Reference Guide for more information.
6.
Click either the page reload icon or the back-arrow on the browser to restore the page.
