Connection settings

The Connection tab includes options that will be applied to the specified source/target connection.

Route

This setting identifies the Target IP Address that the Storage Mirroring data will be transmitted

through. You should only change this setting if you want to select a different route for Storage

Mirroring traffic. On a machine with more than one NIC, this increases the flexibility of configuring

Storage Mirroring activity. For example, you can separate regular network traffic and Storage

Mirroring traffic on a machine. The default ports will be used.

File Shares

By default, all non-administrative file shares are selected. You can add other data that you want to

protect by selecting the checkbox next to it in the tree view.

You can also select non-application specific data under the Volumes folder.

To refresh the tree view to show new source directories or files that may have been added or

removed, select the logical node, then click the Refresh button. If a node in the volumes branch is

selected, then the items under that node will be refreshed.

Mirror type

The following options specify what files you want sent from the source to the target during a mirror.

Full—Copies all of the directories and files in the replication set to the target machine. If a mirror

has already been completed, another full mirror will overwrite the data on the target.

NOTE:

On a domain controller, you cannot protect the NETLOGON and SYSVOL shares and they

will not be visible in the File Shares tree.

NOTE:

If Override Generated Rules is selected on the Advanced tab, this control will be

disabled.
