Limitations: Windows hosts for Resiliency Platform Data Mover replication

Following limitations are applicable only for hosts on Windows platform and the replication is Resiliency Platform Data Mover:

  • To perform the Initialize Disk operation, consistency group must be in PAUSED or STOPPED state.

  • If the consistency group is not in PAUSED or STOPPED state then you need to perform the following steps before initializing the disk:

    • Move the consistency group in maintenance mode.

    • Verify that the consistency group is in PAUSED | FLOW CONTROL state on the Windows hosts running the following command on the host:

      %PROGRAMFILES%\Veritas\VRTSitrptap\cli\vxtapinfo status

  • If system recovery is done manually, then you need to first stop the replication and then start the replication using the CLI.

    • "C:\Program Files\Veritas\VRTSitrptap\cli\vxtapaction.exe" stop - cg <CGID>

    • "C:\Program Files\Veritas\VRTSitrptap\cli\vxtapaction.exe" start - cg <CGID>

      where CGID is the consistency group ID.
