Copying the initial replication data

Working with VM replication sets (Windows) : Importing replication data (Offline replication) : Copying the initial replication data

1. Locate the initial VM replication data that the source DS-Client has placed in a specified local disk.

This local disk location was specified through the Initial Backup Settings dialog box when the VM replication set was being created in the New Backup Set Wizard.

2. Copy the folder that contains the initial VM replication data and place the folder in a local disk on the destination DS-Client machine.

3. Specify the path for the destination DS-Client to import the initial VM replication data. See “Importing the Initial VMR set” for detailed instructions.

After importing the data, the destination DS-Client will replicate the source virtual machine to the target virtual machine on the destination server.
