add_sdr

Add an SDR to the specified protection domain. The SDR is one of the main components that must be installed on each of the peer protection domains for replication. It transfers data from the source volume to the target volume.

Syntax

scli --add_sdr --sdr_ip <IP> [--sdr_ip_role <ROLE>] [--sdr_name <NAME>] (--protection_domain_id <ID> | --protection_domain_name <NAME>) [--sdr_port <PORT>] [--profile <PROFILE>] [--force_clean [--i_am_sure]]

Parameters

--sdr_ip <IP>
A comma-separated list of IP addresses assigned to the SDR
--sdr_ip_role <ROLE>
The role assigned to each SDR IP address where <ROLE> can be one of the following:
application_only
Application only, for communicating with SDC
storage_only
Storage only, for communicating with SDS
external_only
External only, for communicating with remote SDR
application_and_storage
Application and storage, for communicating with SDC and SDS
application_and_external
Application and external, for communicating with SDC and remote SDR
storage_and_external
Storage and external, for communicating with SDS and remote SDR
all

--sdr_name <NAME>
A name to be assigned to the SDR
--protection_domain_id <ID>
Protection domain ID
--protection_domain_name <NAME>
Protection domain name
--sdr_port <PORT>
Port assigned to the SDR
--profile {compact | high_performance}
Set the performance profile as compact or high performance. The high performance profile configures a predefined set of parameters for very high performance use cases.
--force_clean
Clean a previous SDR configuration. Use this if the SDR was previously part of a PowerFlex system.
--i_am_sure
Skip the safety questions for command execution. (For example: “This could damage the stored data. Are you sure?”)

Example

scli --mdm_ip 192.168.1.200 --add_sdr --sdr_ip 10.55.105.41,10.76.30.14 --sdr_name SDR2 --protection_domain_id 2c3071a200000001

SDR names

Assign each SDR a meaningful name. When a name has not been defined, the system may display default system-defined names that use IDs of the SDRs.

Each name should conform to the following rules:

  1. Contains fewer than 32 characters
  2. Contains only alphanumeric and punctuation characters
  3. Is unique within the object type
NOTE:PowerFlex objects are assigned a unique ID that can be used to identify the object in CLI commands. You can retrieve the ID via a query or through the object’s property sheet in the PowerFlex Manager.
