As described above, replication updates include most of the configuration specified on the Shares screen for a project and its shares. This includes any target groups and initiator groups associated with replicated LUNs. When using non-default target groups and initiator groups, administrators must ensure that the target groups and initiator groups used by LUNs within the project also exist on the replication target. It is only required that groups exist with the same name, not that they define the same configuration. Failure to ensure this can result in failure to clone and export replicated LUNs.
The SCSI GUID associated with a LUN is replicated with the LUN. As a result, the LUN on the target ZFSSA will have the same SCSI GUID as the LUN on the source ZFSSA. Clones of replicated LUNs, however, will have different GUIDs (just as clones of local LUNs have different GUIDs than their origins).
