Updating the policy to reverse the replication direction
In the event of a disaster or failover, there may be a need to reverse the replication direction by using predefined SLPs, if they are pre-created and available. In this example, the backup policy called test-backup-policy is updated to use the SLP LON_1month_to NYC_2weeks instead of NYC_1month_to_LON_2weeks which reverses the direction of replication or duplication.
To update the policy to reverse the replication direction
- Select NetBackup Management > Policies in the left pane of the Administration Console.
- Select the policy test-backup-policy on the right pane of the Administration Console.
- Right click test-backup-policy and select Change. Use the information provided in the table to configure the policy Attribute settings. The Change Policy window is displayed.
