Replicate Source Data to the Temporary Data Store

Source Administrator

After creating the temporary data store on the external device, you can replicate the source data to the external device using RPS Jumpstart.

Note: Before you begin the RPS Jumpstart process, pause the related plan. Pausing the plan ensures that any scheduled replication job does not start when the Jumpstart process is in progress.

Follow these steps:

  1. Click Actions and then click RPS Jumpstart.

    The RPS Jumpstart Wizard opens.

  2. Select whether you want to migrate from the same data store or from a shared location.
  3. Select the source recovery point server, source data store, and plan.

    The nodes that belong to the plan are displayed.

  4. Select the nodes that you want to migrate.
  5. Click Next.

    The Select Target Data Store page opens. If the source data store is encrypted, only the encrypted data stores are displayed in the drop-down list.

  6. Select the target recovery point server and the target data store. The target data store should be on the external device.
  7. .Click Finish.

    The Recent Events section on the right pane displays the replication progress.

    After the replication process is complete, the data is replicated to the temporary data store. You can verify the size of both the data store from the Destinations: Recovery Point Server page.
