Create remote system configurations

Configures a remote system configuration for the local system to access.

NOTE: For a source VNX system with two control stations, the home directory of the sysadmin user, which is used in configuring the import connection, must exist on the primary control station of the VNX.

Format

/remote/sys create -addr <value> [-type VNX] -srcUsername <value> {-srcPassword <value> | -srcPasswordSecure} -dstUsername <value> {-dstPassword <value> | -dstPasswordSecure} [-connectionType {sync | async | both}] [ -bandwidthSchedules <value> ]

Action qualifiers

QualifierDescription
-addrSpecify the network name or IP address of the remote system.
-typeSpecify the remote system type. Valid values are:
  • VNX
-srcUsernameFor systems that are the source in a replication, type the username that is used to access the system.
-srcPassword For systems that are the source in a replication, type the user password that is used to access the system.
-srcPasswordSecureSpecify the password in secure mode. Once you run the command with this qualifier, you will be asked to type the password separately.
-dstUsername For systems that are the destination in a replication session or VNX in an import session, specify the username that is used to access the system.
-dstPasswordFor systems that are the destination in a replication session or VNX in an import session, specify the user password that is used to access the system.
-dstPasswordSecureSpecify the password in secure mode. Once you run the command with this qualifier, you will be asked to type the password separately.
-connectionTypeSpecify this qualifier to indicate the type of replication connection. Valid values are:
  • async
  • sync
  • both
-bandwidthSchedules (async or both connection types only) Specify a schedule during which to cap bandwidth. Type the following to specify the schedule [{Sun|Mon|Tue|Wed|Thu|Fri|Sat}][HH-HH][/<bandwidth>], where:
  • Sun|Mon|Tue|Wed|Thu|Fri|Sat - days of the week to run the schedule
  • HH-HH - start and end time for the schedule
  • /<bandwidth> - value at which to cap bandwidth, in KBps

Example

The following command creates a remote system configuration with these settings:

  • Network address is 10.60.10.10.
  • Includes access credentials for when the system is the source or destination.
  • Limits bandwidth to 2,000 KB/s from 7 A.M. to 6 P.M. Monday through Friday. Otherwise, bandwidth is limited to 8,000 KB/s.

The configure remote system receives the ID RS_1:

uemcli -d 10.0.0.1 -u Local/joe -p MyPassword456! /remote/sys create –addr 10.60.10.10 -srcUsername LocalAdmin ‑srcPassword LocalAdminPassword -dstUsername RemAdmin -dstPassword RemAdminPassword -connectionType async -bandwidthSchedules MonTueWedThuFri7-18/2000,/8000 
Storage system address: 10.0.0.1
