Enabling Cross-Region Replication When Creating a Volume Group

Use the oci bv volume-group create command and specify the --compartment-id, --volume-group-replicas'[{"displayName":" , "availabilityDomain" and "xrrKmsKeyId" parameters to enable cross-region replication when creating a volume group:

oci bv volume-group create --compartment-id <compartment_ID> --volume-group-replicas '[{"displayName":"<display_name>","availabilityDomain":"<availability-domain_ID>","xrrKmsKeyId" : "<kms_key_ID>"}]' 

For example:

oci bv volume-group create --compartment-id ocid1.compartment.oc1.phx.<unique_ID> --volume-group-replicas '[{"displayName":"Sample_Replica","availabilityDomain":"pjBI:US-ASHBURN-AD-1","xrrKmsKeyId" : "ocid1.key.oc1.iad-ad-1.<unique_ID>"}]'

For a complete list of parameters and values for CLI commands, see the CLI Command Reference.

Run the CreateVolumeGroup operation and specify the volumeGroupReplicas attribute in the CreateVolumeGroupDetails resource to enable cross-region replication when creating a new volume group.
