How would I set up a new replication only site with existing data (Recovery points)?

We have 2 Rapid Recovery servers. They both act as a target and a core. Cross replication.

1 is local and 1 is in an off-site data center. We are trying to move out of the off-site data center, to another off site location. We can't just shut everything down and move it. We want to create a third core server (target only) in the new location which will only be used for replication only. Then, in time we will consolidate both current locations to a single location locally.

We want to set up the new Replication (Target) server, create a replication seed drive from the 2 existing servers (on an external drive) then ship to to the location where the third site will exist, then load all the recovery points to it.

If something happens, in transit to that external drive, we want to make sure the data is unuseable.

What would be the best way to do this?

  • I was asking about the status of the data on the seed drive. I want to make sure it is unusable to anyone but us, in case it falls into the wrong hands. We deal with ePHI and HIPAA data. The way I understand it is, The seed drive can only be consumed on the target it was matched to. Is that correct? (Not sure if I asked that question correctly). After I replicate to the seed drive, I will need to ship that drive to an offsite location where that target core will exist.
