Replication Page
To display the
Replication page, click Storage

replications, the names of the local and remote containers, the peer state, and the bandwidth selected per container.
The Replication page lets you perform the following tasks:
• Create a new replication relationship (source and target pair or cascaded replication) and select the type of
encryption to use.
• Edit or delete an existing replication relationship.
• Start or stop replication.
• Set the bandwidth (or speed limit) for the replication process.
• Display statistics for an existing replication relationship.
The
Replication page contains a Replication summary table that lists the following replication-related information:
• Source Container Name
—SRC container name (IP address or hostname)
• Replica Container Name—Target in the replication process (IP address or hostname)
• Cascaded Replica Container Name—Remote container name (IP address or hostname) (optional)
• Bandwidth
—Settings include Kibibytes per second (KiB/s), Mebibytes per second (MiB/s), Gibibytes per second
(GiB/s), or default (an unlimited bandwidth setting)
NOTE
: Mouse over status for Peer State—Online, Offline, Paused, or Disconnected. When started the Peer
State displays the status as Online for the selected container. When stopped, the Peer State initially displays
the status as Paused, and then changes to Offline.

number of clients is listed above the tabs (
NFS, CIFS, RDA, NDMP, iSCSI, and DR2000v tabs).
Depending on the tab you select, the number of clients for each connection type is displayed, as well as other
information about the clients. For example, if you select the
RDA tab, the number of current OST or RDA clients
(OpenStorage Technology or Rapid Data Storage clients) that are connected to the system are displayed. The RDA tab
