EMC Proven Professional – PowerMax Specialist — Question 131

A storage administrator wants to add as asynchronous replication session to a pair of Unity systems with an existing synchronous replication session that is operating correctly. Which configuration steps are needed?

Answer options

• A. Create Replication interfaces on both systems. Modify the Replication Connection Mode. Run a Replication Connection Verify and Update operation.
• B. Create Replication Interfaces on the source system. Modify the Mode for Replication Connection. Perform a manual Sync operation on the Asynchronous session.
• C. Create Replication Interfaces on destination system. Establish FC connectivity using the Synchronous FC Ports of each system. Perform a manual Sync operation on the Asynchronous session.
• D. Create Replication Interfaces on both systems. Establish FC connectivity using the Synchronous FC Ports of each system. Run a Verify and Update operation for the Replication Connection

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because it covers the necessary steps to set up replication interfaces on both Unity systems and ensures the replication connection is verified and updated. Options B and C incorrectly focus on only the source or destination system without addressing both systems, and they also mention unnecessary manual sync operations. Option D, while close, lacks the modification of the Replication Connection Mode which is crucial for asynchronous replication.
