    If you feel that the alternate read server is an issue in the duplication then leave it out or use the "any available" one.

    The opt-dupe actually goes straight from appliance to appliance and never passes anything through a media server so all you need for a duplication is enough to trigger the duplication itself.

    Other than that make sure all appliances can communicate with each other as that is the most important thing, especially across site, so use hosts file entries on the appliances if neccessary - very important if they have more than one network connected as they could route along the wrong network.

    So all 4 appliances need to be able communicate with each other via the appropriate IP address

    Hope this helps
