When will SRL be played for initial sync using backup/restore
Understood all the points in https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/forums/clustering-one-physical-and-one-virtual-node-gco but the resync using backup/restore is still confusing. """"When using checkpoints, you take backup of the data on the Primary and physically ship the backup media to the Secondary location, and restore the backup on the Secondary. When you start the backup, mark the starting point, by using the checkstart operation on the Primary. When you end the backup, mark the ending point by using the checkend operation on the Primary. While the backup and restore are going on, updates are written to the Replicator Log volume. To bring the Secondary data up-to-date, restore the block-level backup. After the restore is complete, start replication to the Secondary with checkpoint using the same checkpoint name that you had specified for the checkstart operation on the Primary. The Secondary can be brought up-to-date only if the updates are still present in the Replicator Log volume. Using checkpoints is a multi-step process and therefore, needs to be done very carefully."""""" When will the replicator log will be played? Also once the logs have been committed will the pair notify us about those logs being played?

Create second RDS using volumes from same disk group in Veritas volume replicator
Hi all, I have one query. I have one disk group with 5 volumes, which are more than 2 TB and are configured for replication. Now i want to add 2 more volumes in the RDS but it will resync all the volumes after adding these 2 volumes, so is it possible to make second RDS for only those 2 new volumes. Also can we use same IP for replication.

How to generate block-level backup using BE2012 to synchronize remote location (VVR)
Hi, In an enviroment of SQL databases in HA, using global clustering between two remote sites the following Symantec productos are used: Veritas cluster, Veritas Replicator and Backup Exec 2012. In order to synchronize the volumes in the remote location it is necesary to generate a block-level backup to tape and send it to there... based on the following article: http://www.symantec.com/docs/HOWTO58828 How can I do a backup of that type using Backup Exec?? Thanks a lot.

Question about VxVM and VVR over AIX HACMP?
Hi, I'm trying to figure out what's steps are necesary to acomplish this: I have a Customer with two datacenters located far from each other, they have theirs primary datacenter with a two AIX Power7 SI -HACMP / GPFS / ORACLE RAC / CLUSTER by the Oracle RAC; they want to replicate this date with VVR to a secondary site with same configuration; the primary site is running at this time and We want to create minimal disturbance in the current environment and help them to replicate the ORacle data to the secondary site with VVR. Can We get control of these disk at the primary site with VxVM without any consideration or the customer have to put additional space and transfer current data to the new VxVM volumens? Thay have to modify additional things inside de HACMP to work with ours VxVM? They need to control de VVR replication at the command line or SMIT? The HACMP is aware of VVR or not? They have AIX 6.1, Oracle 10G, IBM DS5000 FC Storage boxes and 10MB (100Mbps) it's the bandwith of the replication channel? Thanks for your help, Best Regards, Gonzalo Gomez
