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?

  • Understood. For the seed/consume purpose yes that seed is only good for that single target core. However the data is not secured so to speak and only usable by the second core, the seed can be converted into an archive and then it can be utilized by another core. The only way to 'secure' your recovery points would be through encryption, the replication process of seeding does not protect your data in the manner which you are referring to.
