(Optional) Perform a Manual Replication

To manually run a replication job, you have to first perform a manual backup. The replicate task is associated with a backup task. You cannot run the replicate task as a standalone job. If a plan includes a backup task and a replicate, then when you manually run the backup job, the replication job runs automatically after the completion of the backup job. So, you perform a manual replication by performing a manual backup.

If you have not set the replication schedule, the replication job will run immediately after the backup job, otherwise, it depends on your replication schedule setting.

Follow these steps:

1. Click the resources tab.
2. From the left pane, navigate to Nodes, and click All Nodes.

   If you have added any plans, these plans will be displayed in the center pane.

3. Select the nodes that you want to backup and that has a plan assigned to it.
4. On the center pane, click Actions, Backup Now.

   The Run a backup now dialog opens.

5. Select the backup type and provide a name for the backup job.
6. Click OK.

   The backup job runs.

   The replication job runs immediately after the backup job is over.

The manual replication is successfully performed.
