  • On the primary HDI navigate to file system you want to access in DR under the resources tab. Click edit
  • Expand the option Namespace sharing settings. Make note of the username (typically same as FS name) and create a password. This will be used later on the DR HDI
  • If the HDI DR side is not connected to the DR HCP, make sure you do that now
  • On the DR HDI navigate to file systems and create a new FS
  • In the Create File System dialog box:
    • Enter a File system name
    • Select Namespace type as file system
    • Select Protocol to match what was selected on primary
    • Set Content sharing to On (Read-Only). Set Namespace FQDN equal to the URL from the DR namespace that is replicating from primary
    • Enter the user and password you created on the primary HDI earlier
    • Set a Capacity for cache
    • Click test Connection
    • Click OK then Apply

You should be all set …
