DKR Relationships

DKR relationships are created through the DKR map file. Specify the source and destination disks that are in a DKR relationship, which allows you to input a large number of entries in a single operation. DKR relationships can be set up in two ways:

• Remote Replication relationship—The destination disk might be exported to the host and can be visible to the SME disk through device discovery.

DKR Mapping File

You can populate the DKR database by giving DCNM-SAN a map file that contains the replication and snapshot relationships. Each DKR relationship consists of a source and destination disk.

Note The administrator has to configure and discover the destination disk explicitly because DCNM-SAN does not configure the destination disk in the destination cluster.
