You can edit a replication group to adjust the schedule for snapshots or to remove volumes from the replication group.

Note: You can import HA pairs from Ops Center Protector. See Importing HA replication pairs from Ops Center Protector for more information.
  1. Access the Edit Replication Group window from the Replication Groups window.
  2. You can edit the following:
    • Name
    • Comments
    • For snapshots, the schedule and number of snapshots. The schedule is based on UTC time.
    • (Optional) Select the pool from the list of available pools. The default selection is Auto Selected, which means that Ops Center Administrator selects the best pool based on utilization and tier requirements.

      You cannot select the pool if a DRS-VOL exists in the specified replication group.

    Note: You cannot edit the name and comments of imported replication groups.
  3. To remove a primary volume from the replication group, select the corresponding row. You can choose whether to remove the corresponding secondary volume.
    Note:
    • If you detach all volumes that comprise a specific host group, the host group is also deleted.
    • Ops Center Administrator can unprotect volumes with high availability or asynchronous remote clone in the replication group with following conditions:
      • P-VOL STATUS and S-VOL STATUS of all paired volumes in the replication group is PAIR.
      • Status of the corresponding replication in Ops Center Protector is OK.
    • When creating an asynchronous remote clone replication group, any new journals created will be deleted when the replication group is deleted. Use other management tools to check the journal status after the operation and delete any unnecessary journals.
  4. Click Submit.
    A job is added to the Jobs window to apply the changes to the replication group.
