Creating an EVS Replication Pair (Deprecated)¶
Function¶
This API is used to create an EVS replication pair using a specified production disk and a disaster recovery (DR) disk. The production disk is in the primary AZ, and the DR disk is in the secondary AZ.
Note
This API has been deprecated. To use this function, see Storage Disaster Recovery Service API Reference.
Constraints¶
Two EVS disks used to create the EVS replication pair have been created and belong to different AZs.
The types and capacities of the two EVS disks must be consistent.
If the DR disk has been attached to a server, the server must be stopped.
