Seeding the initial data set
For large data sets, it is recommended that you seed the initial data set to the target using removable media (disk or NAS). This is optional, but greatly reduces the time required to transfer the first backups to the system. Rather than letting the replication process do this initial transfer, use a seeding mechanism.
To seed the initial data set
Perform these steps on the source system.
Note: If cross-replicating, perform this procedure on each replicating system.
