Looking for information on how to verify data is being fully replicated between 2 Centera clusters

I'm wondering if there is a tool or script available that can help me determine or be certain that data living on a Gen3 8-node cluster is being fully replicated to a Gen4 4-node cluster. At this point, there does not seem to be a way to confidently assure the powers-that-be that the data on both clusters are 'equal' in the event that there is a failure of the Gen3 cluster (which is the primary)...

If more information is needed to answer this question, please let me know so that I can add as necessary.

Thanks!

Hi Tony

From my point of view there are two basic possiblities to ensure data is replicated:

Centera Tools based:

Verify with show pool capacity that the pool capacities and the number of clips and files are identical for source and target

Verify with show replication detail that the queue is being processed correctly, no parked entries remain in the queue...

Using ApplicationAudit:

ApplicationAudit creates an object creation history (and deletion history) for both source and target

Write a script that finds unique clip id's

This would also work for data already in the system and identify if you have objects only in one system

The SQL database of ApplicationAudit is open for you to write whatever SQL you need to report to the people who need to have the information

ApplicationAudit is an application of my company and I could also issue a test license for you.

Best regards, Holger
