35.4 Starting Incremental Replications

After the first replication completes successfully, you can start each incremental replication manually. You can alternatively schedule the time and pattern to run incremental replications that occur after the first replication. See Section 35.5, Scheduling Incremental Replications.

35.4.1 Using the Migrate Web Interface

To start an incremental replication manually:

  1. On the Workloads page, locate and select the workload.

  2. Click Run Migration.

  3. On the Workload Commands page, select Incremental Replication as the replication method.

  4. (Optional) Set the following options as appropriate if you want to cut over the workload after a successful manual replication:

    • Run cutover after successful replication

      • Shut down source after cutover

      • Shut down target after cutover

      NOTE:For workloads in the cloud, the end-state shutdown stops the VM and deallocates its resources.

  5. Click Execute.

    PlateSpin Migrate starts the incremental replication for the workload.
