Modifying a replication set

You can modify a replication set name, queue policy, snapshot history settings, and associated schedules (Provisioning > Volumes) by selecting the slide-over to access the Replications panel.

Click next to the options you want to modify in the Replication Details section.

NOTE:Modifying a replication set name does not affect the schedule.
NOTE: Consider the following points before modifying a replication set:
  • If you change the Snapshot Base Name while a replication is running, for the current replication it will affect the name of the snapshot on the secondary system. For that replication only, the names of the snapshots on the primary and secondary systems will differ.
  • If you reduce the snapshot count setting to a value less than the current number of snapshots, the operation will fail. Thus, you must manually delete the excess snapshots before reducing the snapshot count setting. If you change this parameter while a replication is running, for the current replication it will affect only the secondary system. In this case the value can only be increased, so you might have one less expected snapshot on the primary system than on the secondary system.
