1 Introduction
HP StorageWorks D2D Replication Manager (Replication Manager) is a standalone software
application that provides basic management capabilities in a replication environment, and provides
an easy way for customers to manage up to 300 D2D devices that are being replicated across
multiple sites. Using Replication Manager, administrators create, manage, and remove groups of
devices; and establish and control user and administrator access to the groups and devices.
Replication Manager allows administrators and users to review the status of the groups and devices
to which they have access, either to ensure that replication is happening successfully and on
schedule, or to respond when there are replication operation errors. Replication Manager also
provides the ability to monitor disk usage and deduplication ratios for the devices. This allows
administrators the ability to identify devices that may need additional capacity. Trend analysis is
also available to look at disk capacity changes that occur on devices over a pre-determined period.
Replication Manager Environment
Install Replication Manager software on a computer having a Microsoft Windows operating system
that has network connectivity through which it can communicate with all the D2D Devices to be
managed. All the required components are installed as a part of D2D Replication Management
software installation.
