Viewing replication information

In the QoreStor GUI, the Replication page displays current information about replication relationships for data containers in your QoreStor system.

  3. To view more detailed information and additional options, click the elipsis icon and click Details.
    • Tile view - the ellipsis icon is to the right of the source container. You may also click the Details button to the right of the configured replication.
    • Grid View - the ellipsis icon is in the Actions column.

    The information below is displayed:

Modifying replication relationships

You can modify the following replication settings: encryption and remote container’s IP address/host name settings. To modify settings for an existing replication relationship, complete the following steps.

Caution: You should exercise caution when configuring the direction of replication for source and target containers. For example, target containers can have their contents deleted if they contain existing data.

NOTE: Because you cannot modify an existing defined role (source or target replica) for a replication relationship, if necessary, you must delete the existing replication relationship, and then recreate a new relationship with the specific source and target roles that you want.

  1. In the navigation menu, click Replications.
  2. The configured replications are displayed.

    Using the or toggle in the upper-right corner of the Replications pane, you may switch between tile and grid views.

  3. To edit the replication, click the elipsis icon and click Edit.
    • Tile view - the ellipsis icon is to the right of the source container.
    • Grid View - the ellipsis icon is in the Actions column.
  4. Modify the settings/values for the Source, or Target containers as needed.
    1. For Remote System, modify the IP address/host name and user logon credentials of the source remote system as needed.
    2. Review the replication details, and then click Save.

      NOTE: Replication needs to be stopped before the encryption settings can be modified.

  5. Click Save.

Deleting replication relationships

To delete an existing replication relationship, complete the following steps:

  1. In the navigation menu, click Replications.
  2. The configured replications are displayed.

    Using the or toggle in the upper-right corner of the Replications pane, you may switch between tile and grid views.

    To view more detailed information and additional options, click the elipsis icon and click Delete.

    • Tile view - the ellipsis icon is to the right of the source container.
    • Grid View - the ellipsis icon is in the Actions column.

  3. In the confirmation dialog box, click Delete.

    NOTE: If the deletion fails, you can click Force Delete to force removal of the relationship.

Starting and stopping replication
