naviseccli –h SP ipaddress mirror –sync –addimage –name <name>
-arrayhost <sp-hostname| sp ipaddress> -lun <lunnumber| lun uid>
4. Even if there is only a single LUN being replicated to the secondary site, you still need to
create a consistency group for SRM. The following commands show how to create a
consistency group and add existing mirrors to the consistency group.
naviseccli –h SP ipaddress mirror –sync –creategroup –name <name>
naviseccli –h SP ipaddress mirror –sync –addgroup –name <name>
-mirrorname <mirrorname>
5. If for some reason the mirrors are fractured, the syncgroup option (shown below), can be
used to resynchronize the primary and secondary images:
naviseccli –h SP ipaddress mirror –sync –syncgroup –name <name>
6. While the mirrors are synchronizing or a consistent state, you can add all the LUNs (if you
have not already done so) to the ESX Server CLARiiON Storage Group at the protected and
recovery site using the following command:
naviseccli –h SP ipaddress storagegroup –addhlu –gname <ESX CLARiiON Storage Group
Name> -hlu <Host Device ID> -alu <Array LUN ID>
Configuring async mirrors using NaviSecCLI
The following steps outline the process for setting up asynchronous replication using Navisphere
SecureCLI commands. The commands should be run from a management host that is connected to the
production CLARiiON storage array:
1. If not already established, create a path or paths for remote mirroring between the primary and
secondary CLARiiON with this command:
naviseccli –h SP ipaddress mirror –async –enablepath SPhostname
[-connection type fibre|iscsi]
2. Once you have created mirror paths, create a remote mirror of the LUN(s) that you wish to
protect with SRM. The LUN(s) on which the mirror is created becomes the primary image.
naviseccli –h SP ipaddress mirror –async –create –lun <LUN_Number>
3. The secondary image on the remote CLARiiON can then be added to the primary image.
After the secondary image is added, the initial synchronization between the primary and
secondary images begins. (The following command assumes that the LUN(s) are already
created on the remote CLARiiON storage system).
naviseccli –h SP ipaddress mirror –async –addimage –name <name> -arrayhost
<hostname| sp ip-address> -lun <lunnumber | lunuid>
4. Even if there is only a single LUN being replicated to the secondary site, you still need to
create a consistency group for SRM. The following commands create a consistency group
and add existing mirrors to the consistency group.
naviseccli –h SP ipaddress mirror –async –creategroup –name <name>
naviseccli –h SP ipaddress mirror –async –addgroup –name <name>
