Creating a HyperMetro Domain
This section describes how to create a HyperMetro domain, which defines the relationships among the local and remote devices as well as the quorum server.
Context
- Create a HyperMetro domain on the local HyperMetro device.
- A quorum server provides arbitration services to determine which site in a HyperMetro domain continues to provide services when a device fault occurs or a link is disconnected. If no quorum server is configured in a HyperMetro domain, the preferred site will provide services by default after a fault occurs. If a quorum server is configured, the quorum server determines which site continues providing services in the event of a fault.
Procedure
- Choose Data Protection > Configuration > HyperMetro Domains.
- Click
.
The Create HyperMetro Domain page is displayed.
- Specify the name and description for the HyperMetro domain.
- The name must be unique.
- The name contains 1 to 31 characters.
- The name can contain only letters, digits, underscores (_), hyphens (-), and periods (.) and must start with a letter or digit.
- The description can be left blank or contain up to 127 characters.
- Determine whether to enable Quorum Server.
- If you enable Quorum Server:
- In the Remote Device area, select a remote device that you want to add to the HyperMetro domain.
- In the Quorum Server area, select a quorum server that you want to add to the HyperMetro domain.
- You can click
to create a quorum server.
- Set Name and Description for the quorum server.
- The name must be unique.
- The name contains 1 to 31 characters.
- The name can contain only letters, digits, underscores (_), periods (.), and hyphens (-).
- The description can be left blank or contain up to 127 characters.
- Set the Local Quorum Server Links and Remote Quorum Server Links.
- You can click
or
to add or remove a link.
- Configure at least one local and one remote quorum link.
- To ensure reliability, it is recommended that you add at least one link from the quorum server to each storage controller.
- This operation will create a quorum server on both the local and remote storage systems.
- You can click
- Set Name and Description for the quorum server.
- If you use the static priority mode:
In the Remote Device area, select a remote device that you want to add to the HyperMetro domain.
- If you enable Quorum Server:
