Example Scenario

This chapter explains how to use Volume Replicator Web Console (VRW) to set up a simple VVR configuration under different situations with the help of examples. The examples explain the procedure to set up a VVR configuration containing one Primary and one Secondary. However, VRW enables you to create and set up VVR configurations containing multiple Secondary hosts. The example configuration looks like this:

Primary Host name: seattle

Disk group	hrdg
Primary RVG	hr_rvg
Primary RLINK to Secondary london	rlk_london_hr_rvg
Primary data volume #1	hr_dv01
Primary data volume #2	hr_dv02
Primary SRL volume	hr_srl

Secondary Host name: london 

Disk group	hrdg
Secondary RVG	hr_rvg
Secondary RLINK to Primary seattle	rlk_seattle_hr_rvg
Secondary data volume #1	hr_dv01
Secondary data volume #2	hr_dv02
Secondary SRL volume	hr_srl
