Replication Problems
The following table describes corrective actions for problems occurring with the replication.
Problem |
Explanation/Corrective Action |
The replication was paused, but the replication is still in process. |
When you click Pause, the system will continue to replicate the current tag or block of information in process. The process of completing the current tag replication can take up to 15 minutes to complete. Once that tag has completed replication the system will pause and wait to resume. |
The replication was paused and a Failure event was generated in the Replication Events page. |
This is normal. When a replication is paused, a failure event is generated on the Replication Events page. They system will continue the replication when you click Resume. |
Replication was disabled while a replication was in process and the replication completed. |
If you click Disable during a replication in process, the system will complete the entire replication and then disable replication on the system. The system will be unable to replicate until you click Enable. |
Enabled replication on a NAS share and received the following Event: |
You must configure the target system prior to configuring the source. If the target system is not configured first, you will not be able to designate the replication target. |
Able to enable and schedule replication for NAS even though no target IP configured. |
It is possible to enable and schedule a replication when a target system has not been configured. The replication will not start until a target system is configured. |
Space consumption and deduplication ratio differ between source and target. | Space consumption and the deduplication ratio can differ between a source and a target DXi unit. The DXi4800 deduplication engine is independent between source and target and this variance is expected. |
