These are the steps for setting up SRDF/Metro and Smart DR on an existing storage group:
- Select a Storage (1) > Storage Group (2) and choose a storage group name to protect.
- In Protect (3), choose Select Technology as Setup high availability using SRDF MetroDR (4). This option incorporates both SRDF/Metro setup and Smart DR setup as described separately in prior sections. It creates the required storage groups on both the R2 side PowerMax system for SRDF/Metro and the tertiary PowerMax system for Smart DR.
- First Configure Metro (5) and enter SRDF/Metro PowerMax system (R2) for configuration. Provide storage group name to create on R2 system and choose Establish SRDF Pairs to establish R1 and R2 device pairings when task is run.
- The Configure DR Session (6) and enter SRDF/Metro Smart DR PowerMax system (tertiary system) for configuration. Select SRDF Mode Asynchronous, provide the storage name to create on that tertiary system and choose Establish SRDF pairs to establish device pairings between R1 and R2 systems and this tertiary system.
