remote_system
Information about remote storage systems that connect to the local PowerStore system. The system
uses the configuration to access and communicate with the remote system for management and
data transfer communications. For example, to use remote replication, create a configuration that
specifies the remote system to use as the destination for the replication session.
The PowerStore local system can establish a remote system relationship with different types of
remote storage systems for replication remote protection and import use-cases. Refer to the
RemoteSystemTypeEnum specification for a list of system types supported. NOTE Before creating a
remote system relationship with PowerStore remote systems, first establish a Certificate Based
Trust between the local and remote PowerStore systems using the verify and exchange operations
on the x509_certificate resource type.
