Replication Dashboard
The replication dashboard allows the user to monitor and manage replication operations on a system. The screen is organized into four primary areas: an historical view of completed replication operations, the currently-active replication operations, any pending replication operations (backups waiting to be replicated), and a control bar at the bottom.
Completed Replication Operations
Completed Operations are grouped per system in the top of the screen. For each row of Completed Operations, the following information is provided:
- Identification - this is the identification number of the backup that was replicated
- Status - a graphical status indicating whether or not the backup was successfully replicated
- Client - Client Name
- Type - the type of backup replicated
- Date/Time - the time at which replication started
- Size (MB) - the size of the replicated backup
- Elapsed - the elapsed time for the replication operation
Also, you can click on any row in the table and a details window will display additional information.
Active Replication Operations
The area in the middle of the screen shows active operations, organized per system. Each row contains the following information:
- Identification - this is the identification number of the backup that is being replicated
- Status - a status indicating whether the replication operation is active or not
- Client - Client Name
- Type - the type of backup being replicated
- Phase - an icon that denotes the replication phase, e.g., Prepare(1/4), Replicate (2/4), Processing (3/4), Target Processing (4/4).
- Phase Elapsed Time - the time at which the replication goes through the four phases.
- Phase Start Date/Time - the time at which this replication operation started
- Total Elapsed Time - the total elapsed time for this specific replication operation from the beginning of the process
- Progress - the completion percentage of the operation
- Estimated Phase Completion - the estimated completion time for this operation/phase. It is important to note that this projection is based on completion percentage (as calculated using current and final size), and replication rates seen at that point in time.
Pending Replication Operations
The Pending Operations area at the bottom of the screen contains a list of any backups that are waiting to be replicated, organized per system. The fields displayed are
- Identification - this is the identification number of the backup scheduled to be replicated
- Status - a status indicating whether the replication operation is active or not
- Client - Client Name
- Type - the type of backup
- Date/Time - the time at which the backup started
- Size (MB) - the size of the backup
