Replication Properties; Replication Addresses - HP P2000 Reference Manual

Replication properties

For a local primary or secondary volume, the Replication Properties for Volume table also shows:
• Name. Replication volume name.
• Serial Number. Replication volume serial number.
• Status. Replication volume status: Replicating, Suspended, Initializing, Inconsistent, Offline, Online, or
Establishing proxy. After a secondary volume is reattached it has "Establishing proxy" status while
establishing a proxy connection with the remote (primary) system in preparation for replication.
• Status-Reason. More information about the status value, or N/A for Online status.
• Monitor. Interval in seconds at which the primary volume should query the secondary volume.
• Location. Local or Remote.
• Primary Volume Name. Primary volume name. If the replication set has a primary-volume conflict, all
associated primary volumes are displayed.
• Primary Volume Serial Number. Primary volume serial number. If the replication set has a
primary-volume conflict, all associated primary volumes are displayed.
• Primary Volume Status. Primary volume status: Online, Offline, Conflict, or N/A.
• Maximum Number of Queued Images. Number of replication images to consider when determining
the next image to replicate. Used only if the On Collision parameter is set to Oldest.
• Maximum Retry Time (Seconds). Amount of time in seconds that the replication volume should retry a
replication operation on any specific image when errors occur. Used only if the On Error parameter is
set to Retry.
• On Error. Error policy to invoke when errors occur during the replication process: Retry or Suspend.
• Link Type. Type of ports used to link the primary and secondary volumes: FC or iSCSI.
• On Collision. Collision policy used to determine the next image to replicate when multiple replication
images are queued: Newest or Oldest.
• Priority. Priority of the replication process on the replication volume: Low, Medium, or High.
Connection Status.
•
• Not Attempted. Communication has not been attempted to the remote volume.
• Online. The volumes in the replication set have a valid connection but communication is not
currently active.
• Active. Communication is currently active to the remote volume.
• Offline. No connection is available to the remote system.
• Connection Time. Date and time of the last communication with the remote volume, or N/A.

Replication addresses

If any remote port addresses are associated with this volume, when you select the Replication Addresses
component, the Replication Addresses table shows:
• Connected Ports.
• For a remote primary or secondary volume, this field shows the IDs of up to two hosts ports in the
local system that are connected to the remote system. If two ports are connected but only one is
shown, this indicates that a problem is preventing half the available bandwidth from being used.
• For a local primary or secondary volume, this field shows N/A.
• Remote Address. The address of each host port in the remote system through which the volume is
accessible.
