Short-term retention goals
On the Review Disk Allocation page, review how DPM has allocated storage space for
the protected workload. Choose whether to co-locate data in the storage pool, which
puts multiple data sources on replica volumes. Choose also whether to automatically
grow the volumes. If you enable the option to grow volumes, ensure that you add
capacity to the storage pool as necessary.
6.
On the Choose Replica Creation Method, you specify how to create the initial replica of
the protected data. You can configure DPM to create a replica immediately or at a later
point in time over the network. Alternatively, you can transfer the data manually using
removable media.
7.
On the Consistency Check Options page, specify whether to automatically run a
consistency check if a replica becomes inconsistent. You can also run daily consistency
checks according to a schedule. Consistency checks are processor and disk intensive.
