Creating a Mounting Plan

Procedure

  1. In the navigation tree, choose Utilization > Data Mounting.
  2. Click Create.
  3. Set Name and Description of the mounting plan.
  4. Select Protection Plan.

    If no proper protection plan is found, click Advanced Selection. On the Select Protection Plan page, search for the protection plan based on Type, Protection Plan, Protection Site, or Protection Policy.

  5. Configure the mounting settings.

    Select Site and Host or Host Group to which the copy is mounted.

  6. Select a mounting time point.
  7. (Optional) Select Create level-2 copy mounting and select Level-2 Copy Type.

    level-2 copy is created for the selected copy to prevent data from being read and written to the selected copy, thereby destroying the data at the selected copy time.

  8. Optional: If you want scripts to be executed automatically on the host to adapt to special data usage scenarios, for example, invoke the script to execute data decription, or stop or start a process, log in to the host to download the script template and customize the script, click Advanced to set the names of the pre-script and post-script to be mounted.

    • A customized script is not provided by eReplication, so the script provider must ensure the script correctness. Before configuring the script, ensure that the script has been tested and verified.
    • Place the self-defined execution script in a specified path.
      • In Windows: the path is %OceanStor BCManager Agent install path%\bin\thirdparty\
      • In Linux/UNIX: the path is /home/rdadmin/Agent/sbin/thirdparty/

  9. Set mounting items. Table 1 describes related parameters.
