Make sure you have a valid domain and servers specified, click Configure from the main Application Manager page, and then select the Connection tab.
Note: The fields on the Connection tab will vary depending on the type of application you are protecting.
Specify your Mirror Settings.
- Mirror Type—Select the type of Double-Take Availability mirroring process you want to perform. A Full mirror will transmit all files from the source to the target. A Checksum mirror will transmit only the blocks of data that are different between the source and target. A Source Newer mirror will transmit only those files that are newer on the source than on the target. The newer option is only available for file server protection when you have launched the Application Manager using the command line advanced option.
- Enable Compression—Compression allows you to reduce the amount of bandwidth needed to transmit data from the source to the target. The data is compressed before being transmitted and then is uncompressed before it is written on the target. Typically, compression is used in WAN environments, but not in LAN environments. If desired, enable compression and select the level of compression that you want to use. All connections to the same target will have the same compression settings.
