8.1.2.1 Vault Replication

This topic provides the systematic instructions to create vault replication.

After creating the vaults, replicate the production vault to a secondary region for disaster recovery. Replication makes the vault and its encryption keys available in the remote region.

Before starting replication, add this IAM policy at the tenancy level:

Allow service keymanagementservice to manage vaults in tenancy.

Once the policy is in place, initiate vault replication:

  1. On the Vaults list page, locate the production vault you want to replicate.
  2. Select the vault to open its details.
  3. Select Actions, then select Replicate Vault.
