Abstract
Exemplary methods, apparatuses, and systems include a source site management server receiving, from first and second potential target site management servers, characteristics of the first and second potential target sites that affect replication of data from the source site to each potential target site. The source site management server receives selection of one or more criteria to be met in the selection of a target site for replication of data. The source site management server determines which potential target site is a better match for the received criteria based upon a comparison of the received criteria with the received characteristics of the target sites. The source site management server configures, automatically in response to the determination, the selected site as the target site for replication of data within the source site.
