If the storage arrays of the protection site and backup site support SRAs, you must configure storage array managers for the sites. After you add the sites and storage array managers, synchronize the storage replication information. You can configure site recovery settings through the console of one site and synchronize them to the other site.
When the operator idle timeout is 0 and the password validity period is not 0, check and change your password in time to avoid disaster recovery failures. If your password has expired, set a new password on the management interface and change the site password accordingly.
Disk backup-based disaster recovery does not require storage array managers.
A user that is not a system administrator group member cannot add or configure a site.
A CVM that has a site configured cannot be configured as a remote site for another CVM.
A site that has been bound to a protection group cannot be deleted.
No storage array manager is required if the storage array corresponding to the site does not support SRA.
A connectivity test fails if the CVK hosts on the site cannot access the storage array manager.
A storage array manager that has devices with mappings configured cannot be modified.
