Dell PowerStore Protecting Your Data
Modify a protection policy
You can modify a protection policy by adding and removing snapshot, replication, and remote backup rules.
About this task
NOTE:Changing the settings of a protection policy applies the new settings to all objects to which the protection policy is assigned. If you want to change the protection policy for one resource, it is recommended to create another protection policy, and assign it to that resource instead.
You cannot change the replication destination on a replication rule that is used in protection policies which are assigned to one or more storage resources. To reconfigure replication to a different remote system, unassign the protection policy and assign a new one with a different replication rule. Unassigning a protection policy with a replication rule deletes the associated replication session and assigning a new protection policy creates a session, which requires a full synchronization to the new destination.
You can change an asynchronous replication session to synchronous replication (for block resources) or change a synchronous replication session to asynchronous replication (block and file resources) by modifying the replication rule that is used in the protection policy.
Steps
- Select .
- Select the check box next to the relevant policy and click Modify.
-
In the
Properties slide-out panel, you can modify the following parameters:
- Policy name
- Selected snapshot rules
- Selected replication rules
- Selected remote backup rules
- Click Apply.
