The
snapvault.access option controls which systems can request data transfers. This option persists across reboots.
Steps
- On the primary system: To set the primary systems to grant access only to the secondary systems, enter the following command:options snapvault.access host=snapvault_secondary
Note: In the
snapvault.access option, up to 255 characters are supported after
host=.
Setting this option on the SnapVault primary system determines which secondary system can access data from that primary system.
- On the secondary system: To allow the primary systems to restore data from the secondary system, enter the following command:
options snapvault.access host=snapvault_primary1,snapvault_primary2,...
Setting this option on the SnapVault secondary system determines which SnapVault primary systems can access the secondary system.
The system must be able to resolve the host name entered as
snapvault_primary to an IP address in the
/etc/hosts file, or else the system needs to be running DNS or NIS. You can also use the literal IP address instead of the host name. The syntax for specifying which systems are allowed access to the secondary system is described in the na_protocolaccess(8) man page. For more information about the
options command, see the na_options(1) man page.
