NOTE:
When the replication configuration file is imported, the replication service validates
only that the source path exists, not that it is a PSFS directory or mount point. When
replication starts, the replication service verifies that the source path is a PSFS
directory or mount point. If this verification fails, an error is generated.
End the current replication interval and start a new interval
Occasionally you may need to terminate the currently running replication interval
and then start a new replication interval. Use the following command:
# rplcontrol –s switch
Reelect the sentinel node
The replication configuration file allows you to specify a preferred sentinel node on
the source cluster. This node is used to perform the file transfers during replication.
However, when the replication group is formed and replication starts, a different
node may actually become the sentinel node. This can happen for a variety of reasons;
for example, the node may have been down at the time the replication group was
formed.
You can use the following command to force the preferred sentinel node to become
the actual sentinel node. For the command to take effect, the node must be a member
of the replication group at the time that the command is issued.
# rplcontrol –s reelect
To determine which node is the current sentinel, use the following command.
Replication must be running when the command is issued.
rplstatus
Create a custom ssh key pair
If desired, you can create a custom key pair and then install that key pair on the
source and destination clusters. Use one of these methods to create the custom key
pair.
• Run rplkeys -c to create the custom key pair, add it to the mxds datastore,
and publish it for replication use.
