The illustration above depicts the utilization of the iSCSI host ports for remote data replication.
Two hybrid systems, a source system and a target system, reside within the same virtual pool but are
physically apart. You can create a volume copy/mirror pair for data protection without relying on slow
management LAN cable connections. In such case, you can link the hybrid systems using iSCSI host
ports. If the distances between systems are far, additional switches may be required.
