Monitoring inbound replication
Inbound replication stores volume data on the current group, in replica sets, from a replication partner.
To monitor inbound replication, click
Monitoring and then Inbound Replication. The Inbound Replication
panel provides the following information:
• Volume and partner name
• Replication start time and status
• Amount of data transferred
See the online help for information about the data fields and options.
Table 15-5 shows the inbound replication operation status,
its description, a
nd how to solve any issues.

unmanaged Delegated space capacity on the secondary
group that is no longer accessible from the
prim
ary group. This can happen when the
original volume is no longer available or no
longer configured for replication.
If these replicas are no
longer needed, you can
delete them or permanently promote them to a
volume.
waiting Replication data transfer did not st
art because
the group cannot create more iSCSI sessions.
In most cases, the problem resolves itself, and
replication continues automatically.
To see more detail about a replica set in the list, move the pointer over the replica set name. A pop-up window
appears, listing the:
• Replica set name
• Storage pool where the replica set is
st

• Thin provisioning status (enabled or disabled)

The replica set on the partner has been
promoted to a recovery volume.
Demote the recovery volume on the
partner and retry the replication.
