Initialization" on page 78.
2. On the target site, open the Automigration/Replication tab and select Import Tapes from the

The screen prompts you to load full tapes and unload finished tapes as needed. If a physical
tape is damaged or otherwise unavailable, you can select Skip for that tape and transmit the
data over the LAN/WAN after the import process completes.
8. After the import process completes:
• The tape import pool is automatically destroyed on the target site
• The tape export pool is automatically destroyed on the source site
• The echo copy pool on the source will change to the "Ready" state and deduplication-enabled
replication over the LAN/WAN will begin at the next screen

Forcing Non-Deduplicated Replication

For systems using replication with deduplication, the Non Deduplicated Copy task allows you to
schedule a replication job that forces the whole cartridge (non-deduplicated data) to replicate
immediately regardless of whether or not the cartridge is within the policy window. You can only
perform this task when the cartridge is holding in the Backup Postprocessing state.
In Command View VLS:
1. On the Automigration/Replication tab, expand the destination library in the navigation tree and
select Slots to open the Summary for Slots screen.
2. Select Non Deduplicated Copy from the task bar.
