Synchronizing a Remote Replication Pair

After the initial synchronization of a remote replication pair, if an application server writes data to primary resources or you need to split the pair, data inconsistency between primary and secondary resources may occur. This operation enables you to synchronize the remote replication pair to ensure data consistency between primary and secondary resources.

Prerequisites

The remote replication pair for which you want to perform data synchronization has not been added to a consistency group.
Secondary resource protection has been enabled.

Running Status of the remote replication pair supports synchronization. Table 1 shows in which status a remote replication pair can be synchronized.

Procedure

Choose Data Protection > Block Protection > Remote Replication Pair.
Select one or more desired remote replication pairs and click Synchronize.

You can also click More on the right of a desired remote replication pair and select Synchronize.
Confirm your operation as prompted.
