Replication Sets table in the Volumes topic

To see information about the replication set for a volume or volume group, select a volume in the volumes table. If it is not already selected, select the Replication Sets tab. The replication appears in the Replication Sets table.

The Replication Sets table shows the following information. By default, the table shows 10 entries at a time.

  • Name – Shows the replication set name.
  • Primary Volume – Shows the primary volume name. For replication sets that use volume groups, the primary volume name is volume-group-name. * , where .* signifies that the replication set contains more than one volume. If the volume is on the local system, the Vol local icon appears.
  • Secondary Volume – Shows the secondary volume name. For replication sets that use volume groups, the secondary volume name is volume-group-name.* , where .* signifies that the replication set contains more than one volume. If the volume is on the local system, theVol local icon appears.
  • Status – Shows the status of the replication set:
    • Not Ready – The replication set is not ready for replications because the system is still preparing the replication set.
    • Unsynchronized – The primary and secondary volumes are unsynchronized because the system has prepared the replication set, but the initial replication has not run.
    • Running – A replication is in progress.
    • Ready – The replication set is ready for a replication.
    • Suspended – Replications have been suspended.
    • Unknown – This system cannot communicate with the primary system and thus cannot be sure of the current state of the replication set. Check the state of the primary system.
  • Last Successful Run – Shows the date and time of the last successful replication.
  • Estimated Completion Time – Shows the estimated date and time for the replication in progress to complete.
NOTE:If you change the time zone of the secondary system in a replication set whose primary and secondary systems are in different time zones, you must restart the system to enable management interfaces to show proper time values for replication operations.

To see more information about a replication set, hover the cursor over the replication set in the table. The Replication Set Information panel opens and displays detailed information about the replication set.
