Replication is configured through the My Repositories pane of the vRanger interface.

The following procedure assumes that:

In the My Repositories pane, right-click the Quest Rapid Data Access (RDA) repository, and select Configure Replication.

Description: [Optional] Enter a long-form description for the repository.

RDA Password: Enter the password for the backup_user account — the default is: St0r@ge!
Logical Storage Unit: Enter the name of the storage container. Ensure that the container is created before you add the device. You cannot add the device if the specified container does not exist on the device. When creating the storage container, use the options:

Under the Repositories node, select Replication.
TIP: You may also right-click the target repository in the My Repositories pane, and select Repository Replication Options.
