Restrict SyncIQ source nodes

You can restrict SyncIQ to use the interfaces in the specified IP address pool using the command-line interface.

SyncIQ uses the front-end network ports of a node to send replication data from the source to the target cluster. By default, SyncIQ policies use all nodes and interfaces to allow for maximum throughput of a given policy. However, you may want to exclude certain nodes from a SyncIQ policy. Excluding nodes from a SyncIQ policy is beneficial for larger clusters where data replication jobs can be assigned to certain nodes.

By selecting a predefined IP address pool, you can restrict replication processing to specific nodes on the source cluster. This option is useful to ensure that replication jobs are not competing with other applications for specific node resources. Specifying the IP address pool allows you to define which networks are used for replication data transfer.

By default, SyncIQ uses all interfaces in the nodes that belong to the IP address pool, disregarding any interface membership settings in the pool.

You must use the force replication and restrict target network options together to tie traffic from the source to the correct interface.

NOTE SyncIQ only allows source node restrictions on subnets and pools from the default groupnet.
