Use the Enable Storage Group Local Continuous Replication Wizard to enable local continuous replication (LCR) for a storage group. LCR is a single-server solution that uses asynchronous log shipping technology to create and maintain a copy of a storage group on a second set of disks that are connected to the same server as the production storage group. LCR provides log shipping, log replay, and a quick switch to a secondary copy of the data. The following sequence represents the LCR life cycle:

  • The life cycle starts when a copy is created by configuring a copy of a storage group. The storage group must exist and have a defined location for the LCR copy. If databases exist in the storage group that is being enabled for LCR, the wizard will also walk you through enabling the databases for LCR.

  • When it is designated as a copy, the new LCR storage group can be seeded. Seeding is the process in which a database, either a blank database or a copy of the production database, is added to the storage group copy.

  • When seeding is complete, the copy is designated as being in replay. In this process, the copied transaction log files are being replayed into the database.

After you have enabled a storage group for LCR, we recommend that you verify the health and status of the storage group copy after it has been seeded. For detailed steps that explain how to view status information, see How to View the Status of a Local Continuous Replication Copy.

Use this wizard page to verify that the proper storage group is being enabled for LCR:

  • Storage Group Name   This read-only field shows the storage group that will be enabled for LCR.

  • Database Name   This read-only field shows the database that will be enabled for LCR.

After you have reviewed the fields on this page of the wizard, click Next to continue the wizard.
