To set up
SnapVault backups, you must prepare the primary
storage system and
SnapVault secondary
storage system to perform backup tasks. These tasks are similar to those for non-SnapLock volumes. To use
SnapVault backup, you must have separate
SnapVault licenses for the primary and the secondary storage systems.
- On the primary
storage system, use console commands to activate the
SnapVault primary license and specify the
SnapVault secondary storage host.
- On the
SnapVault secondary
storage system, use console commands to license and enable
SnapVault, initialize system ComplianceClock, configure the log volume for the
SnapLock for
SnapVault feature, specify the primary
storage system that are to be backed up, and start the process of initial Snapshot copy
backup.
- On the primary
storage system, schedule the time for local
SnapVault
Snapshot copies to occur. On the
SnapVault secondary
storage system, schedule the time for the
Snapshot copies from the primary storage system to be backed up to secondary storage system.
