Switching Operations to the Recovery Site (BUI)

After a failure occurs at the production site, perform a reverse replication at the recovery site, and then redirect client operations to the recovery site.

1. From the replication target, go to Shares > Projects > Replica and look for the replication package from the source appliance.

   The replica is named source_appliance:project/share.

2. Double-click the replication package, or click its edit icon
3. Click the Replication tab.
4. Click the reverse replication direction icon .
5. Enter a name for the new local project and enable the action.

   The project name and location of the original action are preserved.

   
   

   ---

   Note -  The project name must be unique on the appliance where the reverse operation is performed. If a project with the same name exists on the target at the recovery site, the reverse operation will fail.

6. Click OK.
7. Transfer client activity to the IP address of the appliance at the recovery site.

   Depending on the protocol used, map (SMB clients) or remount (NFS clients) the shares using the IP address or name of the appliance at the recovery site.
