Single - Simple Replication
This scenario involves a single Source, Preferred server, and Replicator each configured as a separate device. This could be used when to locations are connected by a decent link, or simply to reduce traffic to the Source.
Source | Preferred server | Replicator |
---|---|---|
Physical Path : C:\Storage\ Share name : Storage Share point : C:\Storage\ Source Path : \\Server\Storage Source Representative: Not used | Physical Path : C:\Storage Share name : Storage Share point : C:\Storage Share used by Replicator : \\Server\Storage Share used by clients : \\Server\Storage | Location : Local to the Source or Preferred server. If concerned about bandwidth usage of the link, the Replicator should be located local to the Source |
Notes : The Storage folder may contain additional folders such as Patch or Software. If that is the case, a single source can be created to replicate both, or separate sources can be created for each folder in the share. |
