OPEN-E Replication

[jason1871]

Hi Folks,
i have 2 storage servers running open-e that were brought at different times, i want to wipe everything from the one and replicate the other is this something that can be done? or do you have to wipe both boxes to configure this?

thanks all

hi gr,
this talks about setting up a new iscsi volume group and this is why i thought it will wipe my current setup as all my disk space is currently used by the current volume group?

no need to wipe or create new volumes, just enable the replication on each one you need to replicate.

hiya when i try and create this on the source it says i dont have enough free space as i created one big volume at the start is it possible to auto resize this somewhere without losing my data?

Cheers

Enabling replication for volume really creates a small attached volume to store metadata on it and it requires 128MB of space for each 4TB of volume. I assume you do not have any more space left in your Volume Group?
