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

Managing QoreStor Storage Operations > Replication > Replication Command Usage > replication --limit --speed <<num><KBps || 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.

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

Managing QoreStor Storage Operations > Replication > Replication Command Usage > replication --resync --name <name> --role <source | target>

Description

Resynchronizes the replication process between a source and target container in a replication relationship on a QoreStor.

IMPORTANT: This command should only be used in an emergency situation with the help of Quest Support. Do not mistake this command as an ability to start a replication sync outside of the schedule window.

If your intention is to start a replication outside of the window, you can either delete the schedule, or add a temporary replication window to the current schedule and delete it when the systems are in sync.

Syntax

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

Where

--name   Name of container.

--role   Role of container.

Result

Successfully initiated replication resync on container dataStorage3.
