Protecting Full Systems › Creating a Full System Cascade Scenario to Add Multiple Replicas › Add Replicas to the Scenario

Add Replicas to the Scenario

After you create the Full System scenario, you can add additional Replica servers to the existing scenario. You can add Replicas at various levels to make your replica topology flexible and the protection more secure.

Follow these steps:

1. Open the RHA Manager and navigate to the scenario that you created.
2. Right-click the Replica and click Insert Host.

   You right-click the replica to add a second-level replica. To add a first-level replica, you can right-click the master.

   

3. Enter the Appliance IP address and click the Properties tab.
4. Expand the Virtual Machine properties.

   Note: The Virtual Machine properties now part of the Replica properties instead of the Scenario property.

5. Click Virtual Platform Setting.

   The Full System Platform Setting dialog opens.

   

6. Select the Server Type and enter the Virtual Platform IP address with the port number. Click Next.

   The Resource Pool Selection dialog opens.

7. Select the resource pool to which the virtual machine belongs. Click Next.

   The Storage Selection dialog opens.

8. Select the storage in which to store the virtual machine. Click Finish.

The Replica is added to the scenario as the second-level replica. Similarly, you can add replicas at various levels. For example, to add the first-level replica, right-click the master in step and follow the rest of the steps.
