Important Notes

Resolutions

1

To diagnose potential problems with the remote replication configuration, it is recommended to do the following:

Execute a communication test to check network performance between this storage array and the remote storage array

To execute a communication test, perform the following steps:

a

On the Storage and Copy Services tab in the Array Management Window, highlight the affected replication group.

b

Select the Copy Services > Replication > Remote Replication > Replication Group > Test Connectivity menu option.

c

Each communication test (Connectivity, Bandwidth, Latency) can be performed one at a time, or consecutively if multiple tests are selected. It may be necessary to run the tests in different combinations to diagnose the problem.

d

Go to step 2.

Ensure that the recovery point warning threshold is set at a reasonable value for the remote replication configuration

To evaluate and make changes to the threshold setting, perform the following steps:

a

On the Storage and Copy Services tab in the Array Management Window, highlight the affected replication group.

b

Select the Copy Services > Replication > Remote Replication > Replication Group > Change > Synchronization Settings... menu option.

c

Evaluate the warning thresholds and make changes if necessary.

d

Go to step 2.

2

Click the Clear button to clear this notification.

3

Click the Recheck button to rerun the Recovery Guru. The failure should no longer appear in the Summary area. If the failure appears again, reevaluate the network settings and warning thresholds for the replication group. If you feel the remote replication configuration is functioning properly, contact your Technical Support Representative.
