Suspend Data Replication Activity from the Replication Set

Before You Begin

Required Capability: Capabilities and Permitted Actions

To suspend all data replication activity from the Replication Set level:

  1. In the CommCell Browser, right-click a Replication Set in the source machine, and select All Tasks, then select Suspend Data Transfer.
  2. For Windows, if you Suspend Data Transfer for one Replication set, you will be prompted with a list of Replication Set that have the same destination.

    If you click Yes all Replication Pairs on that source computer which use the same destination computer will be placed in the Paused state, even those that are in different Replication Sets.

    For UNIX, data replication activities are suspended for all Replication Pairs in the Replication Set.
