Edit Attributes of Steps in a Plan Group

You can edit attributes of steps in a Disaster Recovery (DR) plan group to change the step name, error mode, timeout, and enable or disable the step.

  1. Navigate to the Resource page for the DR protection group.
  2. Click the Plans link in the Resources panel to list the DR plans for the DR protection group.
  3. Click the name of the plan that you want to view.
    The plan details with a sequential list of plan groups are displayed.
  4. Click the > symbol next to each plan group's name to expand the group and show the steps in the group.
  5. Click the 3-dot Action menu for the step for which you want to change the attributes and select Edit to open the Step edit dialog.
  6. You can change the following attributes in the Step edit dialog:
    • Step name – Change the name of the step.
    • Error mode – The error mode for step execution.
      • Stop on error mode – Indicates that DR plan execution should stop if step execution fails.
      • Continue on error mode – Indicates that DR plan execution should continue even if the step execution fails.
    • Timeout in seconds – The total duration allowed for the step execution before the step is considered to have timed out. For built-in steps, the timeout value cannot be less than 600 seconds.
    • Enable step – Indicates whether the step is enabled for execution. Unchecking the box causes the DR plan execution to skip this step.
  7. Click Update to close the step edit dialog and save the changes.
