Modifying a replication set

Double-Take Availability allows you to make modifications to a replication set when you want to change the data you wish to protect. This allows you to add, remove, or modify any replication set rules without having to create a new replication set.

  1. Open the Replication Console.
  2. In the left pane, highlight the replication set you want to modify and expand the volume and directory levels as needed.
  3. Modify the items by marking or clearing the volume, drive, directory, or file check boxes. Notice the replication set icon has changed from black to red, indicating changes to the replication set rules.
  4. After updating the rules for this replication set, right-click the replication set icon and select Save. A saved replication set icon will change from red to black.
  5. Note:

    If you save changes to a connected replication set, it is recommended that you perform a mirror to guarantee data integrity between the source and target machines. A dialog box will appear instructing you to disconnect and reconnect the replication set and perform a difference mirror.

    If your source is a cluster, you must make the same modifications to the replication set on the non-owning nodes. The replication set rules must be identical on all nodes for Double-Take Availability to function properly on the cluster.
