Specifying the replication destination in NetBackup
Snapshot Manager for Data Center discovers the replication infrastructure and the replication destinations (targets) for all storage arrays for which it supports snapshot replication. This information is discovered as a part of the storage array plug-in discovery operation. For the list of all the storage arrays for which NetBackup supports snapshot replication, refer to the Snapshot Manager section in the NetBackup Hardware and Cloud Storage Compatibility List (HCL).
The lifecycle of the snapshot and replica copy is managed using Storage Lifecycle Policy. You can select the required replication destination (target) as a part of replication operation in SLP.
See About configuring storage lifecycle policies for snapshots and snapshot replication. for details.
The following table describes the supported values for replication destination.
