Replicating agent data on a machine
Replication is the relationship between the target and source cores in the same site, or across two sites
with slow link on a per agent basis. When replication is set up between two cores, the source core
asynchronously transmits the incremental snapshot data of select agents to the target or source core.
Outbound replication can be configured to a Managed Service Provider providing off-site backup and
disaster recovery service or to a self-managed core. To replicate agent data on a machine:
1. From the Core Console, click the Machines tab.
2. Select the machine that you want to replicate.
3. In the Actions drop-down menu, click Replication, and then complete one of the following options:
• If you are setting up replication, click Enable.
• If you already have an existing Replication set up, click Copy.
The Enable Replications dialog box appears.
4. In the Host text box, enter a host name.
5. Under Agents, select the machine that has the agent and data that you want to replicate.
6. If needed, select the check box Use a seed drive to perform initial transfer.
7. Click Add.
8. To pause or resume the replication, click Replication in the Actions drop-down menu, and then click
Pause or Resume as needed.
