Removing or replacing replication relationships in an Auto Image Replication configuration

Auto Image Replication replicates backups from a storage server in the source domain to storage servers in one or more target NetBackup domains. If a storage server needs to be removed or replaced from such a relationship, the involved domains need to make proper preparations to stop or to redirect replication. That is, to remove the replication relationship.

For example, consider a scenario where cascading Auto Image Replication is used across 3 domains. To remove the storage server in domain 2 (which serves as the destination of the import from Domain 1) preparations need to be made in all three domains. The preparations include modifying storage lifecycle policies and removing the storage server from the replication topology.
