Creating a High Availability Policy
To ensure high availability of a primary storage you must create a high availability policy. By creating a
high availability policy:
You assign a secondary storage to a primary storage
Select if you want to seed data to the secondary storage from the primary storage
Before you begin: A primary storage can be associated with only one secondary storage. Similarly, a
secondary storage can be associated with only one primary storage. Create the secondary storage that
you want to associate with the primary storage. For more information, see Creating a Storage. It is
recommended that primary and secondary storages are located on separate storage nodes and are of
equal size.
To create a high availability policy:
1. From Manage menu, click High Availability. The Manage High Availability page is displayed.
2. Click Create New. The Create New HA wizard appears.
3. Enter the necessary information in the wizard:
i. On the HA Overview page of the wizard, link the primary and secondary storages and
create a schedule for backup to the secondary storage. For more information,
see Fields on the HA Overview Page.
ii.
On the Seeding Policy page, choose if you want to seed data from the primary
storage to the secondary storage and the frequency of seeding. For more
information, see Fields on the Seeding Policy Page.
4. Click Finish.
