Features of VRW

VRW includes the following features:

  • VRW Views
  • VRW provides views that display information about the selected VVR objects and the VVR environments. For example, the Summary view displays a list of Replicated Data Sets (RDSs) present on the selected hosts and the replication status for each RDS, whereas the RDS view displays details of the RDS and its status.
  • Web-Based Wizards
  • VRW provides Web-based wizards to perform VVR administrative tasks, including creating the Primary, adding a Secondary, starting replication, and performing migration to change the Primary role. Each wizard provides instructions to enable you to perform its tasks from start to finish.
  • Show Commands
  • VRW is a Web-based interface for executing VVR or VxVM commands, as an alternative to using the command line. When you complete a wizard or dialog box and then click OK, VRW executes the command. Clicking on Show Commands displays the command or commands corresponding to your selections in the wizard or dialog box.
    The Command Window, Edit User List and Edit User Profile operations do not use VVR or VxVM commands; hence they do not have the Show Commands button.
  • Managing User Roles
  • VRW provides the ability to define user roles. This enables you to create non-root users and to set read-only access for some users.
  • Centralized Management of configuration on multiple hosts
  • VRW provides a centralized console to administer RDSs on multiple hosts from one host, through user profiles. You can customize a list of hosts for which you want to administer RDSs. VRW must be installed on each host in the list.
