Managing replication lag threshold policies

Replication lag threshold policies warn you when replication pairs do not complete replication within a set amount of time.

About this task

Assigning a replication lag threshold policy ensures that notifications are displayed in the Replication > Automatic page and the Replication Lag Status widget when the replication did not complete within the time periods you set for Warning and Critical levels.

The default policy level for Warning is 24 hours, and the default for Critical is 48 hours.

Replication lag threshold policies can be created only for MTree and collection. Lag threshold policies for On-Demand replications are not supported.

Steps

  1. Select Replication > Automatic.
  2. Select one or more replication pairs from the table.
  3. To create a policy, select LAG THRESHOLD POLICY (or right-click the pair, and select the option).
    1. In the Assign Lag Threshold Policy dialog, from the Threshold policy menu, select Create a new policy.
    2. In the Manage Lag Threshold Policies dialog, select ADD.
    3. In the text box, enter the policy name, and use the slider controls to set the threshold points for the Warning and Critical lag levels.
    4. Click SAVE.
  4. Back in the Lag Threshold Policy dialog, select a policy from the Threshold Policy menu, and click ASSIGN.

Results

The policy is applied to the selected replications. The assigned policy name is displayed in the table in the Threshold Policy column.

To modify or destroy a policy, select Manage Lag Threshold Policies (or right-click the pair and select the option). In the Manage Lag Threshold Policies dialog, select a policy from the list, and select Edit or Delete. If a deleted policy was assigned anywhere, it is replaced with the Default policy. Select Save to exit.

NOTE The Default policy cannot be renamed or deleted, but it can be modified.
